Hide Groups membership not working / available?
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.
So it is... How strange! I shall ask.
- And at always, this issue appeared because a customer question...here you are the TechNet Article for Set-UnifiedGroup https://technet.microsoft.com/es-es/library/mt238274(v=exchg.160).aspx you will find that the paramenter (HiddenGroupMembershipEnabled) is not there
Interesting, on the EN page for Set-UnifiedGroup it lists it but with a description of "This parameter is reserved for internal Microsoft use."
I also no longer see it available in my tenant. I would guess this aligns with the upcoming
Office 365 Groups: hidden membership support entry in the roadmap.
