Authoritative contacts are mail-enabled contacts that are used to project to the metaverse, which then get exported as contacts to the target forests. Only the authoritative contacts that are in the containers specified in step 3 will be projected to the metaverse, and thus exported to the target forests. |

When you select containers, a blue check mark in a white box next to a container indicates that the parent container and all of the child containers are selected. A white check mark in a gray box indicates that the parent container is selected and that one or more child containers are not selected. No check mark in a grey box indicates that at least one child container is selected, but the parent container is not selected. |
