licensing based on azure ad groups
In such scenarios, an error will be generated (CountViolation), and you can periodically go over the list of users with errors as detailed here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/users-groups-roles/licensing-ps-examples#get-all-users-with-license-errors-in-a-group
Thanks for your Response.
But It dosent work. I have only 5 license. But the report showed that all is okay.

The error is reported on the user object, there are examples on how you can get it via PowerShell in the article I linked.
- Do you have any errors in licenses tab in Azure AD?
No there are no Errors.
Vasil - am I understanding this correctly: CountViolation will (eventually) be generated when I have overbooked the number of User SLs for a given service I actually own? So the service isn't actually enforcing compliance (for the underlying User SLs) across the group???
- No, when licensing with groups you don’t get any error presented to you directly when you don’t have enough licenses, like you do when assigning per user! The users will be in an error state as you can see in Azure Ad under Licenses, and as @Vasil said powershell Reports this as a “countviolation”
- In the absence of accurate reporting, this is incredibly troubling.
