Use API / ExchangeOnline PowerShell to create group possible despite using AD connect?
Hi at all 🙂 I have a question regarding provisioning distribution groups, etc in ExchangeOnline via API or PowerShell. Actually we use the AD Connect tool for syncing informations to the Azu...
You say that AAD connect does not prevent me from creating cloud-only objects. Then I have different assumptions. Can you confirm this?
- S/MIME = cloud and local object --> provisioning via AD necessary
- Distribution group = cloud and local object --> provisioning via AD necessary
- MS365 Group = cloude only --> provisioning via PowerShell or GraphAPI
- Dynamic distribution group = cloud and local object --> provisioning via AD necessary
I´m not shure if the dynamic distribution group is similiar to the query based distribution group in the AD
Thx in advance for your help 😉
Configuring S/MIME is an attribute, not an object. The rest are all object that you can either create directly in Azure AD/Exchange Online, or sync from AD. Using one method doesn't prevent the other, but you will loose the "central" management.
