Sharing project failed after reaching the maximum number of retries.
Thank you Dale_HowardMVP yes when I came back to work the next Monday, and tried again then worked. Very strange Friday it didn't allow me to share. But anyway works now. Thank you!
XiaoqingDeng So I got the fix identified. When you share the Project with a group i.e., the Azure AD group, the group must not have a hidden membership set. The group has to be either Public or Private but if the group has a hidden membership set, you can not assign the project to it.
Look at the attachment, I have pointed out 2 types of groups of 2 different types. Hope this helps!!
- The image and solution is not clear, could you kindly elaborate. Really appreciate your help here
aditijain1508 The Azure AD group are classified as public, private, common_public etc. FOr the MS project that you have created you have to make the group (Remember MS Teams Team is also a group)as Public for it to be shared. In the attachment, right corner, yo can see the group type
- I'm a bit confused because I guess that my Microsoft 365 group has no hidden membership set. Where can I check this ?
Nevertheless, I got the same error message when I try to assign this group to a new P4TW project :
"Sharing project '' failed after reaching the maximum number of retries. Group '' still exists, please try sharing with this group again."Nicolas_Mattioni See the attachment righ top corner. The group to which the MS project is shared shouldn't be saying HIdden Mombership, it has to be either public/privatecommon public
