We are using Azure AD connect to Sync Users , Groups from On Premise AD to Azure AD. We have set group owners in On-Prem AD in "Managed by" Field. The group details like name ,members are getting synced to Azure AD but the owner of the group is not getting synced to Azure AD. Is there any limitation to sync this field?

    security group owners are not synced:

    If you enable Exchange Hybrid in AAdConnect, the managed by is synced for mail-enabled groups:

    Thanks @Andy David - MVP for your response. I also found the same Github article earlier. But as it was old so was not sure if the same restriction is still applicable. Also could not find any Microsoft documentation for Azure AD.
