Managing the Company Directory
==============================
If you don't have the **Company Directory** settings available, contact [
Support
](https://support.ringcentral.com/contact-support.html "") to enable it on your
RingCentral
online account.
**Company Directory Control** enables admins to take control of the company contacts shown on employees' clients. Through this feature, you can hide specific contacts in your company directory from being seen in the
RingCentral
app.
Note: Other users can still contact hidden users by directly dialing the number or by entering the email when creating a new message.
For more information about checking your company contacts, visit [Managing your company contacts in the
RingCentral
app desktop and web](https://support.ringcentral.com/article-v2/Managing-your-contacts-in-the-RingCentral-app.html?brand=RingCentral&product=RingEX&language=en_US "").

----------------------------------------
Once a user is hidden, they cannot be directly contacted through phone, message, or video via the
RingCentral
app. However, other users can still call a hidden user by directly dialing the number or messaging them by directly typing their email when creating a new message.
