Adding Security groups in SharePoint and Office 365 groups
Hello all! We have several sites I have created for departments as Modern Team Sites connected to Groups (we are in SharePoint Online). I want to be able to utilize AD security groups for permssions...
So, to clarify: I create an O365 Group that, when created, has a SPO bound; after this, I want to use AD Security Groups to make user access the SPO pages of the O365?
Hello MarcoMangiante,
yes correct Create an Office 365 Group/SharePoint site, add AD Security Group like "Public Works Department" and they can then access all the sharepoint and O365 group features
Hello Douglas Clelland
for SPO site I can confirm that I tried it and users can access and view pages when AD Security groups are nested inside SPO standard groups. If I remember, it is also possible to check if the permissions are working with the check button in the advanced UI.
