CodeTwo Active Directory Photos is a free desktop application that lets you upload photographs to Active Directory and manage them easily by using a light and super-intuitive user interface. The photos can be visible in Outlook emails, contacts and GALs, as well as in Outlook on the web (formerly known as Outlook Web App or OWA), SharePoint, Skype for Business and Lync. The program has been designed to make the management of dozens of users' images quite straightforward and ultra-fast. Setting up thousands of Active Directory users' photographs is just a matter of cooking soft boiled eggs, which really makes this program stand out in the crowd.

If you’re prompted to sign in to Microsoft 365, click the pencil icon after you sign in, then select Upload photo to choose a photo. If you’re prompted to sign in Outlook Web App, click the Browse button after you sign in. Tip: Outlook can use.jpg.png.gif.bmp, or.tif photo file formats.

Please note! This is NOT a mobile app so please do not install it on your mobile device. Download the program and install it on your PC.

Why would I need it to add photos to Active Directory?

How To Attach Picture To Outlook Email

You may need to add photographs to Active Directory to show them in internal Outlook and Outlook on the web messages, display in Outlook's contacts and Global Address List (GAL), or to add them to internal or outbound email. Letting people see each other's faces while corresponding adds more human touch to the communication. Sometimes it seems to be the only way for some people to know who is who in their own company. What is more, adding users' images to external messages makes your mail look more professional and also lets your customers see who they are corresponding with.

Displaying photos in Outlook messages and contacts

If you want to show pictures in internal emails and Outlook contacts, just rely on what CodeTwo Active Directory Photos gives you. By uploading photos to Active Directory and assigning them to users, they will be automatically displayed in Outlook's internal emails.

Pictures uploaded to Active Directory will also be displayed in Outlook contact cards and in GAL contacts as well.

User photos in Outlook on the web

When you import photos of users to Active Directory with CodeTwo Active Directory Photos, your users will be able to see their coworkers’ faces in Outlook on the web. User photos appear e.g. when displaying emails in Inbox or creating a new message. Being able to see faces when looking up contacts makes it easier to ensure you are sending an email to the right person:

Thanks to the automatic image resizing option, you can be sure that the photos you upload will actually appear in OWA (will not exceed the maximum file size), which is not always the case when using PowerShell.

Active Directory photos in Skype for Business and Lync clients

Once photographs are uploaded to Active Directory with CodeTwo Active Directory Photos, users will be able to see those pictures in Skype for Business and Lync clients. Thanks to this, employees will finally get to see the face of every workmate in the chat window or while pointing the cursor over a given name in Lync's Contact List.

Note! In order to be able to view users' Active Directory photos in Lync, end-users have to choose to use the “Default corporate picture” in Lync Client's photo options.

If your company is using Microsoft Teams, you can use CodeTwo User Photos for Office 365 to easily upload those photos to the cloud.
