This guide explains how to transfer an Infomaniak product from one Organization to another.

 

Preamble

  • You can move almost all products subscribed with Infomaniak to a different Infomaniak Manager interface than the one on which the product is currently located; this is therefore an internal transfer, from Organization to Organization.
    • my kSuite cannot be transferred.
  • The users who currently have access to the selected products will not be transferred (and therefore may no longer have access to the products).
    • Regarding kDrive: users who currently have access to kDrive will be integrated into the new Organization.
    • They will retain their access, their kDrive permissions, but any management rights they may have over the product itself will be lost.
    • Groups (formerly "work teams") are not moved either, rights managed via Groups are also lost.
  • If your user has access to multiple Organizations it is even easier to send to one of them the product of your choice.
  • The invoices of the selected products will not be transferred.
  • This operation does not cause any interruption.

 

Generate a transfer link

Prerequisites

To transfer a product:

  1. Click here to access product transfers management on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click on the Transfer products button:
  3. Check the product(s) to be moved:
  4. Read and accept the general conditions.
  5. Click on the Transfer button:
  6. Read and validate any warnings:

 

The transfer has started. Now, at your choice, you can:

  1. Copy the transfer link
  2. or send it to the email address of your choice…
  3. or select directly one of the Organizations to which your user is attached, and the selected product will be transferred there:

 

At any time you can return to the product transfer page to find the possibilities listed above:

 

Alternative method

In the case of one-off transfer, you can also go directly to the dashboard of the product concerned and click on Manage (example in the image below) however, since this menu is not always present, it is better to prioritize the first method above, which also allows bulk transfer:

Refer to this other guide regarding Jelastic Cloud.

 

Receive the product

Once a product transfer has been started by a user…

1. Be on the Organization that must receive the product

  • Click here to log in to the Manager on the Organization that must receive the product(s).
    • The user specified when logging in to the Infomaniak account must have administrative rights.
    • If necessary, you can create a new Organization to receive products.

2. Execute the obtained link

  • Click on the link obtained in the first step above.
    • You can also simply paste it into a browser while being logged in to the appropriate Infomaniak account.

3. Validate the product transfer

  • If necessary, choose the destination Organization using the drop-down menu.
  • Read and accept the general conditions.
  • Click the Receive the product button (if the button is not clickable, make sure you have selected the Organization):

This guide explains how to synchronise Microsoft Outlook* Windows contacts & calendars (only Office 365, 2024, 2021, 2019, 2016, 2013, 2010, 2007 versions) with the contacts & calendars hosted by Infomaniak, using an extension for Outlook available on caldavsynchronizer.org.

* The free versions of Outlook (New Outlook) and the macOS version cannot install an extension; they are therefore unfortunately incompatible with Infomaniak data!

 

Introduction

  • There is a paid alternative for Windows, Evo Collaborator, which offers a pre-configured profile for Infomaniak.

 

Configure Outlook CalDav Synchronizer

Outlook CalDav Synchronizer allows you to synchronise contacts & calendars via CalDAV and CardDAV protocols, including multiple (non-shared) calendars:

  1. Download CalDav Synchronizer for Outlook.
  2. Close Outlook and launch the installation of the plugin downloaded above:
  3. Once the plugin is installed, open Outlook and click on the new CalDav Synchronizer tab.
  4. Click on Synchronisation Profiles.
  5. Click on the icon to create a first profile (for the calendar or contacts – you will need to create a second profile later to synchronize both):
  6. Choose a generic profile type (first radio button).
  7. Click on the OK button:
  8. Enter a profile name (e.g., the name of the Infomaniak calendar or address book you want to synchronize).
  9. Check the synchronization box.
  10. Click on the [ ▪ ▪ ▪ ] button:
  11. Click on the New… button:
  12. Enter a name for the new folder.
  13. Choose the type of items the folder will contain (Calendar or Contacts).
  14. Click on the parent folder to create the folder within its structure.
  15. Confirm with the OK button:
  16. Select the newly created folder from the list.
  17. Confirm with OK:
  18. Open the wizard https://config.infomaniak.com/ to obtain the information regarding synchronization with Outlook.
  19. Click the button to generate an application password (this allows you to bypass the 2FA for your user account for synchronization purposes only).
  20. Copy the information (password, URL, and username) obtained from config.infomaniak.com.
  21. Enter your email address, which is the address of your Infomaniak account.
  22. Click the button to Test the settings:
  23. In the window that opens, choose the Infomaniak calendar to synchronize.
  24. Click the OK button:
  25. Additional information may then appear automatically in some fields.
  26. Save a second profile if necessary (in this case, start again from step 5).
  27. Finish by clicking OK at the bottom right:
  28. A restart of Outlook may be required to update the added information, which will then be visible in the interface:

 

Resolving duplicate events

If you notice duplicate events in your Outlook calendar that are not duplicated on ksuite.infomaniak.com/calendar, apply these settings:

  1. Click to Show Advanced Settings.
  2. Click on Event Mapping Configuration.
  3. Check the box Use GlobalAppointmentID for UID attribute.
  4. Check the Cleanup duplicate events box.
  5. Save the changes by clicking the OK button:

This removal of duplicate events, and therefore potentially duplicate invitations, may result in a notification of event rejection being sent to the organizer; however, this does not affect the participant's initial choice.

 

For advanced macOS users

There is an alternative for Outlook / Exchange on macOS, via the ews-caldav-sync Python script:

  • Unlike an ICS file import provided by Outlook Web, which only includes the last few weeks of events, the script will import all calendar events, including recurring events, without importing tasks.
  • Synchronization via this script is one-way, from Microsoft Exchange to the CalDAV server. It is recommended to run it at regular intervals.

This guide details the specific features and limitations of synchronizing contacts and calendars with Infomaniak and native Apple applications (macOS and iOS), particularly for managing shared data.

 

Introduction

  • Infomaniak-hosted contacts and calendars can be synchronized with native Apple applications:

 

Contacts: synchronizing address books

The CardDAV protocol does not allow you to individually select the items to be synchronized; all data from the account is retrieved by default.

  1. Before adding a synchronization:
    1. All existing contacts on the macOS device
    2. Existing contacts in the Organization (named here AAlpha SA) of the Infomaniak user Anna Alpha, including the Organization directory, which contains a group called North (in this case, this is a “circle” automatically created after setting up a Group in the Manager).
    3. The user's address book is called Lunchy.
  2. After adding a macOS profile-based sync:
    1. All existing contacts on the macOS device (this displays the contacts that were already present, as well as the new contacts from the sync).
    2. Contacts from the sync (see point 2.d below).
      • A downloaded profile contains the Infomaniak account user's name; this name will be used for the synced address book, which will be displayed on the Apple side.
      • In the example below, the user's name is Anna Alpha and the address book name is Lunchy; this is the user name that will be displayed to describe the contacts on the Apple side.
      • You can change the sync name in the Account Information:
    3. Existing contacts on the macOS device (those from point 1.a above — they remain local on macOS and are not synced — you need to move them if necessary).
      • You can change the address book used by default for future contacts created on your device:
    4. The user's address book is called Lunchy here (equivalent to point 2.b above).

On iOS

New contacts created on iPhone are often saved locally ("On My iPhone"):

  • It is necessary to change the default address book in the device settings so that they are synced to the Infomaniak server.

 

Groups and lists

Grouping contacts into folders or lists does not synchronize bidirectionally. The list system does not use actual folders but category tags, which makes it impossible to retrieve contact groups.

  1. Lists created on Apple devices are not reflected on the Infomaniak server (but the contacts within them are):
  2. Groups configured in the web interface are not displayed in the Apple Contacts app (but the contacts within them are):
    • Tip: to delete a list created on the Apple side, select it and press the DELETE key on your keyboard.

 

Additional address books

The Contacts app does not support multiple address books for the same account:

  • Only the default address book is synchronized.
  • To access all your address books, you need to use software like Thunderbird.

Example of a new address book on the Infomaniak side:

  1. The content of this second address book is not synchronized:
  2. A solution to organize yourself in a similar way could be to create a group in Lunchy and drag the 5 contacts into it:

 

Shared address books

A shared address book with another Infomaniak user will continue to be synchronized, including if contacts are added/edited via the sharing, as in this example of sharing with maximum permissions:

The reverse (receiving the contact sharing from another Infomaniak user) adds an additional address book. The synchronization of these additional contacts is therefore not possible (same rule as presented in the “Additional address books” section above).

 

Calendar: displaying shared calendars

The CalDAV protocol does not allow you to individually choose which items to synchronize; all data from the account is retrieved, including the calendars you share and those for which you have been granted access/modification rights:

If only your personal calendar is displayed, then try this procedure to enable additional calendars:

On macOS

  1. Open iCal / Calendar.
  2. Go to the Calendar menu > Settings (or Preferences).
  3. Go to the Accounts tab.
  4. Select the Infomaniak account and click on the Delegation tab.
  5. Check the shared calendars to display.

On iOS

  1. Open iCal / Calendar.
  2. Tap the Calendars button at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Check the shared calendars in the list.

 

Notifications (iOS)

You can enable or disable alerts for each specific calendar by tapping the icon to the right of its name:
