Admin center for Outlook Groups?
Hi, thanks to you both.
I tried to run :
set-unifiedGroup -Identity "My Group" -PrimarySMTPAddress "mygroup@mydomain.com"
and here is the error message I got :
set-unifiedGroup : The term 'set-unifiedGroup' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or
operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try
again.
At line:1 char:1
+ set-unifiedGroup -Identity "My Group" -PrimarySMTPAddress "myemail ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (set-unifiedGroup:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundExceptionIs there something I should do before running the commands?
Thanks
David
First you need to connect to Exchange Online through powershell remoting.

Thanks this has worked perfectly, however in Outlook Desktop app, the alias is not updated, and the member list is empty. It kind of lost the link to the group... How can I fix this? Thanks

I have tested the script again here and checked, the member list is not empty. Can you post the screen-shot of the page with empty member list?
To change the alias and display name of the O365 group, use the below PowerShell script.
set-unifiedGroup -Identity Engineering -DisplayName Engineering2 -Alias Engineering2

Hi Narasima, thanks again for the help.
In fact after several hours and several restarts of Outllok, all went well: the alias and the member lists were updated. I just had to be a bit more patient :)
Greetings,
David
