Public Folder Contacts Not Showing Using Office 365 OWA
Is anyone experiencing an issue with public folder contacts not showing in Office 365 OWA?
Added contacts public folder in O365 OWA and folder name shows but not the contents. However, seeing this message...
After two days, the message is the same--in several different browsers as well.
Permissions are set and can view without issue using Outlook client.

Seems to work fine here. Did you add the PF to Favorites?

Vasil,
Yes. In fact, if the PF is a calendar type folder then it gets added to the Calendar section in O365 OWA; and if the PF is a contact type folder then it gets added to the People section (as shown in the picture that was provided in the orginal question).

The Outlook client works without issue, as I stated in the original question. The issue is in O365 OWA when adding public folder favorites. It appears that after contacting support, viewing contacts after adding a contact-type public folder is a known issue but is not effecting everyone and is not resolved yet.
