Locked Down O365 Group Creation. Any Unintended Consequences? Other Integrated Apps?
After finally getting my hands on the old 1.x AzureAD PS Module I was able to successfully restrict creation of O365 Groups to an on-prem AD Group, and it seems to be working. This was actually done...
If you havent started using Groups/Teams yet, disabling them will not break anything. All the "core" workloads function just fine without Groups, albeit you will be missing on some of the new stuff. There are specific functionalities built on top of Groups, such as Planner or StaffHub, you will not be able to use those.
Main issues you will have, as Vasil says, are related to any other Apps that need to automatically create Groups behind the scenes such as Outlook Customer Manager or StaffHub. For the other Apps you will have to relay on the people that can create Groups to create Plans, Teams, etc.
