Groups reporting
WhenChanged has nothing to do with group activity. It indicates the last time that the AAD object for the group was updated - for example, when a property was amended.
To check for activity, you have to look elsewhere. See https://www.itunity.com/article/identifying-obsolete-office-365-groups-powershell-3533 for information (and a script that you might be able to use as a base).
Thank you! I know Microsoft is rolling out the expiration of groups. Does anyone know if the logic is based on the same criteria of the AAD object being updated?

It won't be based on the AAD object being updated. It is based on activity within a group.

That makes sense. Any activity or just specific activities like sending an email or does it take into account all activity even something simple like an update in Planner?
- TonyRedmondNov 17, 2016MVPI guess Planner and Teams will have to provide signals of activity that can be recorded in Office Graph or the audit log before those can be taken into account. I don't know if or when this might happen.
