About limiting Mobile contact category sync

The Mobile contact category controls which contacts are eligible to sync to a user’s phone when CardDAV is enabled. Access to this category determines who can sync contact details from Box+Dice to their device.

This setting allows agencies to manage contact syncing more securely by restricting access to specific roles or consultant groups.

Important: CardDAV is being deprecated and Box+Dice recommends linking contacts via Caller ID instead.

While CardDAV is still available for some users, limiting access helps agencies reduce unnecessary syncing and prepares teams for the transition away from CardDAV.


Control access to the Mobile contact category

You can control who can sync the Mobile contact category using role‑based access settings.

To manage access:

  • Go to: Settings
  • Click General > Access 
  • Select Contacts > Contact details > Contact categories
  • Select Apply Mobile contact category setting
  • Remove or add roles or consultant groups as required

By default, all roles are included. It is up to the agency to decide which users should retain access by adjusting these role assignments.
