As I read https://www-304.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYRPW_9.0.1/AD_Enabling_address_book_synchronization.html I have to think this is for your Notes administrator or support needs to chime in.
I havent been able to see/sync any of my Verse contacts on/to my phone Contacts.
WhatsApp only shows phone numbers, no names.
Sync option on Verse app is off and unavailable ... cant turn it on.
Have checked "contacts to display" on the setting options, and the Verse account does not appear ... nor being able to add it as a new contact account/origin.
Regards.
