Hide Groups membership not working / available?
- Feb 14, 2017
I asked the question and here's the situation.
If you want to hide the membership of a group, use PowerShell to create the group and specify the HiddenGroupMembershipEnabled switch as the New-UnifiedGroup cmdlet still supports it. However, because Set-UnifiedGroup does not (it will again in the future), you cannot change the hidden membership status again. That is, until Microsoft updates Set-UnifiedGroup...
We discussed this at Ignite and at that time we said that hidden group membership does work but it's imperfect - the group has to be private, etc. That's logical when you think of it because there's no point in having a public group with hidden members. I think a couple of other flaws were in the mix too that Microsoft was looking at fixing too.
