Auto Set "Receive only replies to you" for all members of a Teams Group

Hello,

 

I am looking for a way to automatically set the "Following" setting "Receive only replies to you" for all existing members of a MS Teams group. Preferably, I would like to have this setting be auto selected for all new members as well. 

 

I am comfortable working with MS Graph or PowerShell, but have had trouble finding any information on how to do this.

 

This is the setting as shown in Outlook:

    Hi CamCov,

    Microsoft has not yet published any official documentation about setting the "Receive only replies to you" setting for all members of a Microsoft Teams group using Microsoft Graph or PowerShell.

    This can now be achieved using the PowerShell ExchangeOnline module through a method I have recently discovered.

     

    For existing users, execute the command below:

    Get-UnifiedGroupLinks -Identity "<GroupName>" -LinkType Members |
    ForEach-Object { Remove-UnifiedGroupLinks -Identity "<GroupName>" -LinkType Subscribers -Links $_.PrimarySmtpAddress -Confirm:$false }

     

    For new users, execute the command below:

    Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "<GroupName>" -AlwaysSubscribeMembersToCalendarEvents:$false
