Please add export to vcard feature
One thing I really miss in the new directory is the export to vcard option from the old directory. I like to keep an updated list of contacts in my gmail account, and the formatting of importing the vcf file vs the csv file is significantly better.

The new directory is not fully developed. There is a new release expected in June or July. Most of the capabilities currently released are just enough to provide a a reasonable capability. I would expect that the vCard will be included eventually.mckingsley wrote:Yeah I understand that, just wondering why they went backwards. They used to have vcard. If anything vcard is getting more prevalent today and easier to work with than .csv But csv is good to have as an option also.
Ideal case senario would be some sync like in the Calendar system.

I just wrote a Perl script that can take the new CSV export format from the new Directory tool and converts it to vCard format.
This works much better when importing into Google Contacts for example.
