Can we add/define Office 365 security group to be able to add/remove users from all the Teams

We have created a security group named TeamsAdmin , as follow:-

 
 

 

and we want users inside this group to be able to add/remove members/owners from all the Teams entities we currently have :-

 
 

 

so is this possible? and how? to define this security group as Teams admins for example?

Thanks

  • No, what I meant is that you can create a role-assignable group and assign the Teams admin role to it, effectively giving every member of the group sufficient permissions to manage the owners/members of every team. You can only create such a group via the Azure AD/Entra portal, follow the instructions in the article above.

      VasilMichev So you mean we can define security groups as owners inside Teams but the security group need to be defined as  isAssignableToRole  property set to  true??   

       

      but when i create a security group inside office 365 , there is not any option to select if the group is isAssignableToRole  or not, as follow:-

       

       

       

       

       

       

      so not sure how to define this option isAssignableToRole  for a security group?
