While creating new Teams , Groups doesn't get created in Outlook
Hi All,
While we create a new Teams from the teams client, no groups gets created under the groups section in outlook. Where as if we create a group from outlook web browser, and after going to SharePoint and link to a new teams group, the groups comes under the group section of Outlook client.
For the first case , if we hide it from the address list the group is showing in the outlook client. But this is not a feasible solution .
Is this a MS bug? Is there a permanent fix for it? Why is this happening?

- Yes, this is by design.
Automatic provisioning as mentioned is a solution or just create as normal in teams and then run this command from powershell with the exchange module will help you:
Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity MyGroup -HiddenFromExchangeClientsEnabled:$False
Adam VishnuBose this is by design since 2018: Teams should not automatically show up in Outlook. If you want to do this, use a process for automation (e. g. Azure Automation) or some other things to automate your Teams creation process.
