Programmatically creation of Office 365 Groups
You are one lazy.... ;)
Tenant tenant = new Tenant(clientContext);
var site = tenant.GetSitePropertiesByUrl(siteUrl, false);
clientContext.Load(site, s => s.Status);
site.Context.ExecuteQueryRetry();
var status = site.Status;
Hi folks,
So after a few months, I'm trying to this again in order to automate the process and I'm facing the same challenge. Office 365 groups creation is of course disable in the organization, otherwise people will just create a mess, so I plan to do provisioning using app-only delegated tokens. Group creates, without logo and always public (even though I specify imagare stream and private) but no site before I call the URL mentioned below..however I cannot just call the URL, it can only be called under some user. For that you need to have username/password..then site creates, at some point. You do not know when, so keep waiting and checking if site exists..when done, you can start customizing it to your company needs.
Quite a complicated process to provision group and site from C# . Is this really the only way ? It's on the edge of hacking the system. I can't believe Microsoft made it that hard for enterprise customers to work with this. Anyone has some new findings ?
