Disabled users removed from Teams
- Apr 17, 2020
chai1900 - I spoke with our team today regarding your question.
Teams has some background workflows today that perform actions on behalf of existing owners when syncing changes from Groups to Teams. There is planned work to move this to a system context so it will not show up as a random owner doing it. I do not know the timeline at this time.In addition, there is an ask to suppress the 'user left the team' message and we are doing some work to mitigate this so that information is not shown in the general channel as it is today. I urge you to vote on this UserVoice item if you agree that the join / removed names should not be listed in the General channel to everyone. you can find that here: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/35515990-users-added-to-team-line-removed - The team is aware of this ask and working on that experience now - additional votes may influence timing of this one.Thank you for sharing the context for the ask.
Anyone knows how to disable this or why it happens that AadSync removes members?
_Przemek_ Well, as we can see from the "best response" it explains what was going on previously, that is until this was released https://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=64173
I suppose it is still work in progress because in my own org. it looks great in some Teams (all system messages etc. are displayed in the info pane only) but at the same time in other Teams the information is still populated under "Posts" and the info pane.
The one big difference in Posts tab though is that it is no longer a "random owner" selected but instead "Microsoft Teams AadSync" performing the change.

_Przemek_ Hi, I just did in the previous post. Please read the "Best response" in the conversation as it is a Microsoft representative that replied. And then click on the link I attached to see the associated roadmap item. The new "Microsoft Teams AadSync" is used/displayed instead of the random owner when performing background workflows from Groups to Teams.

ChristianBergstromOK thank you for your answer. The case concerns information shown on the general channel. I understand.
But why it happened that user AaDSync removed members from the team. I have to present if it is an MS error. Can you please link to the official position on this matter?
