Add Office365 Group Member without Email Notification
Hey Tammy Emond,
I think I should be able to help you out!
There is not a way to my knowledge to do this in outlook or the O365 GUI, but there is a way to do this in Powershell.In Powershell O365 groups use the commands that are around "unified groups," which was an old name for what became O365 Groups. There is an attribute in there that is called a welcome message.
So for each group you wanted to do this on, you would need to run the following in Exchange Online Powershell.
Set-UnifiedGroup <groupname> -UnifiedGroupWelcomeMessageEnabled $false
To turn it back on, just pass the same command with $true

Tammy Emond my boss found that if you create a Team, it creates an email group. If you add people to that created email group, it will add them to the team without sending them an email
