AAD to SharePoint Sync deleted the website twice
- Dec 22, 2020
Hi
The issue was because Someone had created a Team from the Sharepoint Team banner, then tried to delete the team and when they do that the linked AD group got deleted as well which is why the deletion of SharePoint showed up as "AAD to SharePoint Sync". Doing and Audit for "Deleted team" reveled who made and deleted the team.

This helped but was not the answer in our case. In audit I did a search for a whole range of "Deleted *" items and it showed that someone in First Line had "Deleted Group" just minutes before the SharePoint site was deleted by "AAD to SharePoint Sync".
It turns out they deleted a mail group because the name was too similar to a departments mail group and was causing confusion. Deleting the group actually deleted the SharePoint site which was unexpected.
