Unable to assign the "ediscovery manager" role using powershell
I am trying to assign the "ediscovery manager" role to a user who has M365 E5 license using powershell. If I connect to IPPSSession and run the "Add-RolegroupMember" command I get following error:-
"Write-ErrorMessage : Ex6F9304|Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ManagementObjectNotFoundException|The operation couldn't be performed because object 'eDiscovery Manager' couldn't be found on 'FfoRecipientSession'
And then if I connect to exchange online and run the "Add-RolegroupMember" command I get following error:-
"Write-ErrorMessage : Ex6F9304|Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ManagementObjectNotFoundException|The operation couldn't be performed because object 'eDiscovery Manager' couldn't be found on 'KL1PR04A08DD007.APCPR04A008.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM'"
Ultimately I want to be able to assign a group to this role, but at this stage I can't even assign a user to this role.
Assigning to this role in GUI succeeds without problem.

What's the exact cmdlet you are running? This works just fine:
Add-RoleGroupMember eDiscoveryManager -Member email address removed for privacy reasonsI'm running into this same issue and I get;
The operation couldn't be performed because object 'eDiscoveryManager' couldn't be found on 'CH2PEPF00000202.NAMPR01A006.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM'
