Hi
Is it possible to take and display more than 3 phones from MS Active Directory in Cisco Jabber for Desktop interface?
I mean by default Cisco Jabber uses three phones: telephoneNumber (BusinessPhone), mobile (MobilePhone), home (HomePhone). But what if my users in AD have 4 and more phones (Fax, Pager, IP Phone, etc.).

Yes, you should be able to do this by creating a jabber-config.xml file per the following instructions:
but it looks as if you are limited to 4, since there are only 4 number attributes and there is not a way to customize the name on the Jabber interface:
It requires that you are using EDI not UDS directory lookups, which it sounds like you are (default).
Your xml will look similar to this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<config version="1.0">
<Client>
</Client>
<Directory>
<DirectoryServerType>EDI</DirectoryServerType>
<BusinessPhone>ipPhone</BusinessPhone>
<MobilePhone>mobile</MobilePhone>
<HomePhone>homePhone</HomePhone>
<OtherPhone>telephoneNumber</OtherPhone>
</Directory>
<Options>
</Options>
<Policies>
</Policies>
</config>

Thanks,
but are there any plans to see this feature in the future releases (customize display name, customize a number of records)?
