Change O365 group email address using powershell
Even though I logged in as a global administrator, I received the same error. It has been working fine but suddenly it didn't work.

Hi MOONSO KO
We are currently experiencing a temporary outage in this service. The cmdlet should be working again soon.

Can you provide a bit more information about when the cmdlet should be working? We REALLY need to change the email address of one of our Office 365 Groups, as soon as possible.
Is this outage something that will show in Service Health in the O365 Admin Center?
Thanks,
Jim
Hi Jim
We will start rolling out the fix tomorrow on 7th June so you should see it any time by the end of this week.
Mohammad Sarosh, Do you know what time this will be rolling out today (June 7th). I just tried to use the Set-UnifiedGroup and it is still not working. Thanks!
