Using Users & External Contacts
Contacting Us via buildagil
Users and External Contacts can be contacted directly from buildagil without having to manually enter email addresses or phone numbers. The contact options become available as soon as a contact is opened in the "Contacts" division. For more information on editing contacts, see the following article: Editing Users & External Contacts.

Making Calls via Microsoft Teams

Exporting Business Cards
To ensure that contact information is available outside of buildagil, a user’s or external contact’s business card can be downloaded as a VCF file. The file can be downloaded by clicking the business card icon when a contact is open. The VCF file can then be imported into Outlook or a mobile device’s contacts, for example.

Copying Contact Lists
To add multiple people at once—for example, as participants in a meeting—you can copy all users and contacts from a team, contact group, or company in one go. The copied contacts can then be pasted into Tasks & Topics, Meetings, Controls & Inspections, etc. When pasting outside of buildagil—for example, into Outlook—the email addresses of all contacts are imported.
After copying the contacts, you can add them to the items using the "Clipboard" option.
