What to do to see a group created via GraphApi and Azure AD in Microsoft Teams?

Question

Hello. I've created a group via Graph Api. Visibility = public, GroupTypes = Unified. Then I added myself as a member (also via Graph Api). Should I do something more to see my new group in Microsoft Teams "Teams/Groups" section?

Answer 1

Can you clarify where exactly you want the group to appear? If you mean under the M365 Admin Center, no, you do not have to do anything else, just give it few minutes to replicate.

If you want the Group to appear in the Teams client, it needs to be Teams-enabled first.

Hi @Cierlik Marcin, DIGITAL, SEARGIN

If you are trying to create a new team under the group, then this error may be caused by delay, refer to the documentation:

Hi @Cierlik Marcin, DIGITAL, SEARGIN

I can reproduce your question, please remove the Template object in the code.

var graphTeam = new Team()
        {
            DisplayName = group.DisplayName,
            Description = group.Description,
            MemberSettings = new TeamMemberSettings
            {
                AllowCreatePrivateChannels = true,
                AllowCreateUpdateChannels = true,
            },
            MessagingSettings = new TeamMessagingSettings
            {
                AllowUserEditMessages = true,
                AllowUserDeleteMessages = true,
            },
            FunSettings = new TeamFunSettings
            {
                AllowGiphy = true,
                GiphyContentRating = GiphyRatingType.Strict,
            }, 
            GuestSettings = new TeamGuestSettings()
            {
                AllowDeleteChannels = false, 
                AllowCreateUpdateChannels = false
            }
         

        };

        await _graphClient.Groups["289a7d04-e247-4c24-ab25-edf8818752e1"].Team.Request().PutAsync(graphTeam);

Or change your snippet to:

// Code snippets are only available for the latest version. Current version is 5.x

var graphClient = new GraphServiceClient(requestAdapter);

var requestBody = new Team
{
	AdditionalData = new Dictionary<string, object>
	{
		{
			"template@odata.bind" , "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/teamsTemplates('standard')"
		},
		{
			"group@odata.bind" , "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups('71392b2f-1765-406e-86af-5907d9bdb2ab')"
		},
	},
};
var result = await graphClient.Teams.PostAsync(requestBody);

Please refer to the example here.

Hope this helps.
