Exchange 2013 importing contacts

[Simcfc73]

Hi,

 

I must be missing something obvious here but here goes.

 

I am using exchange and google in a split delivery environment. Our pupils mail are delivered to Google and staff use exchange. I want to create contacts in exchange so the teachers can email the pupils from exchange to Google... a contact for each pupil and a few distribution lists for the year groups.

 

I hoped it would be simple but looking on the net it looks like it needs to be powershelled... is this right? Anyone done better?

When I did this on Office365 I imported from a CSV file using Powershell, so I'd expect it to be the same on your local install. Can you export a CSV from Google?

power shell import will work, what about dirsync?

just hoped there was an easier way than scripting.. ta anyway
