Converting a distribution group to an O365 Group
Just to let you know that after raising a ticket with Office 365 support, that they told me that the list of members will get populated after 30 minutes to 1 hour. I left a test distribution group that I converted to a group for 1 hour, and hey presto the list of members magically appeared! So, if anyone else is seeing this "issue" - don't panic and just wait for the O365 backend to just catch up. You might also want to plan when you convert the DG's to Groups as if anyone tries to send an E-Mail to that group as it just being converted, it will not be received by anyone until the list of members gets populated.
