Auto Create the Office 365 Group Site Collection
Does anyone know if there is a way to programatically create the Office 365 Group File Store / Site Collection. Can obviously automate thegrou creation via New-UnifiedGroup. Plan is to create the sit...
Juan is right. When a Group is created, the process starts from Azure AD. Then different services are provisioned in what is described as forward syncing. At least that's how it was described in sessions last year at Ignite. Group creation in AD triggers other provisioning in services like SharePoint, Planner and Skype.
It's best not to try to preempt the Site Collection provisioning process and create it yourself before the Group. I'm hoping to see PowerShell to associate a Group with an existing Site Collection. But based on today's announcements and discussion with Msft Product Group personalities, linking exisiting Site Colls is third in the release order.

See, what I am wanting to acheive is Group Functionality but the ability to provision Content Types and Site Columns to the Document Library. darrellaas jcgonzalezmartin
- I believe you will be able once the Site Group is created...but this is something we will have to check
Yeah was just thinking that. Hopfuly once the functionality hits, where a Group get a Team Site by default then that site is auto provisioned. This would be brilliant.
In my case this is brilliant for managing projects. The last thing I need for this to be a killer is for that site to be there when the groups is created so I can add some CTypes and Site Columns......Bring it on!!!!!!
