Sharing all contacts from a contact groups

[mysap01]

Hi contributers
We often need nexcloud for colabration. Just only one is a gap:
We have nearly 1000 contacts in different groups, built in ms-outlook and imported once in nextcloud. Then, we create a couple of collective-users in the nextcloud. Now, we will share contacts with the nextcloud-users, so that the user get all contacts from each existing contacts-group.
For example: 12 of the 1000 contacts are "publisher", grouped togehter as contact-group "Publisher". All of this 12 fellows should have the contact-informations from the other ones, safed in a single place.
At the moment, sharing of contacts are only possible with adressbooks, and addional contacts is only possible assign to one adressbook. And but not least, do assign 1000 contacts to adressbooks.
Would be possible contacts-groups to share or could contact-groups assign to multiple adressbook's, it would be fantastic and simple.
Thanks a lot....

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are #189 (Group broken when creating new contact), #856 (Expand the Group field in contact details when multiple groups selected), #166 (allow to search contacts from ldap and add them to contact groups), #154 (Question and Improvement of "Contacts"), and #667 ([issue-#39] It is now possible to download group of contacts.).

Duplicate of #213 and partly #111

Dear skjnldsv
I don't think, your assign to other issues are not the same, how i meen:
#213 is for sync with Mac or MS-Outlook --> We will not sync, we will share in nextcloud with different nextcloud-users
#111 is different --> How can i share a single contacts with different nextcloud-user-groups? At the moment, contact-groups would be the simplest way, or we could assign the contact to multiple addressbook's, how it's possible like contact-groups.
Best regards......

Hello, Let me explain a bit further.
For nextcloud t be able to share a group, the group must exists as an entity. Currently the group is just a value inside a contact. It needs to be outsourced and have its own entity, the same thing that macOS vcard group does. Once we moved to that, it will be possible to share this special vcard.

But to be able to share a single vcard (aka our group), we need #111 :)
