Automatic teams creation: We can't get your files (We're working on getting them back)

Hi,

I wrote a script to create roughly 400 Microsoft teams every month using Microsoft graph. However around half of the teams I create don't have file space allocated to them until I reload the files tab or click 'open in sharepoint'. Since I am trying to automate the process this solution does not work for me.

This causes the problem of files not being automatically uploaded to the team upon creation.

I've inspected several race conditions in my script and wait for a OK 200 when 'pinging' the drive before I try to upload files, unfortunately for some teams this 200 never arrives.

Any suggestions?

    @Ivor Denham-Dyson ,

    As we are mainly responsible for general issue of Microsoft Teams, your question which is involved in development is not supported by us. I would remove the office-teams-windows-itpro tag.

    Meanwhile, I found a script which provide the ability to create a Microsoft Team using Microsoft Teams PowerShell Module. You must install the latest version of the module from PowerShell Gallery. The script uses a CSV File as input. For more information, please refer to this link: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Create-using-CSV-d8294bc9.
