MicrosoftService principal account now shown as "Unknown User" in Team
My customer uses a service principal account to provision a team. This account was always invisibile in the member/owner list of the team. Now we see the account as "Unknown User" in a Team and even ...
We have this behavior as well on our tenant.
All Teams are created with the Service Account, but the "unknown user" is only added in what looks like a random subset of the available Teams.
It is possible to remove the Service Account via Azure (it has owner rights). Functionality stays the same after that. So far as I know there is no reason for a service account to have owner rights in an Office365 Group. So it is strange that it is showing up now.
Even worse, the message "Unknow User Joined the Team", doesn't work in favor of a secure environment for our users.
