Office 365 groups expiry now available for AAD Premium customers.
Only for AAD premium?

Yes, like Dynamic Groups, this feature is only available to those customers with Azure AD Premium, Enterprise Mobility + Security or Microsoft 365 Enterprise.
From the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-groups-lifecycle-azure-portal:
Setting expiration for O365 groups requires that an Azure AD Premium license is assigned to
- The administrator who configures the expiration settings for the tenant
- All members of the groups selected for this setting
- This is really sad.
we have been waiting for this feature to roll out desperately, and now looks like non-premium customers will have to buy licenses to use the same?
did they ever mention in roadmap saying this is only for Premium customers?It is a shame in a way, as it is such a useful feature, it's something we talked about in this thread Office 365 Fragmentation? But I do understand the commercial reasons for charging extra for this, Azure AD Premium does have a lot of other benefits besides. It's up to each customer I suppose to work out if it's worth paying extra for.
No there is no mention of the licence requirement in the roadmap, perhaps that would be worth doing in the future, so customers can evaluate requirements in advance.
Thanks, Cian Allner as always with your great post and quick response.
