Address Book Management (BETA UI)

 

Available for all users - with or without a license. 

The AnyDesk Address Book is like your phone's contact list, but for the devices you connect to. You can organize these contacts by adding tags to them, which helps you find them easily.

Personal Address Book
Organization Address Book

Every user gets their personal Address Book. If you are a part of a team or organization, you can also access your organization's Address Book. 

Your Address Books stay up-to-date across all your devices. So, if you make changes to it on the my.anydesk II management console or the AnyDesk client, those changes will show up everywhere you use AnyDesk.


💡 This article is describing a new user interface (UI) for managing Address Books in my.anydesk II. To go back to the old look, switch off the toggle in the top-right corner of the page. For more information, see Address Book Management.  

Personal Address Book

Once you create an account with AnyDesk, a personal Address Book is automatically created for you. The personal Address Book is only visible to you and only you can edit it. The personal Address Book cannot be deleted. 

To access your personal Address Book: 

  1. In your my.anydesk II account, go to Address Books. 
  2. In the Personal Address Book section, open My address book.

You can also view the details of the address book by navigating to Address Books > My address book > Options > Details.


Organization Address Book

If you are a member of a team or organization, you can also view your organization's or team's Address Books if you have the permissions to do so. To edit or create new organization Address Book, the license owner or admin needs to give you permission and access to do that. 

Once you have received the permissions required, you can do the following:
