Connect Office 365 group to SharePoint Online team site
- Oct 17, 2019
HiPepozzo ,
I have just tested this and the SharePoint site does not appear to be created unless you visit it.
From outlook click on the group and then click the following:-
Yes, I'm using the new admin centre.
Also a weird thing is that I've some O365 groups that have their own SharePoint team site. But if I've 1 group with its SharePoint team sites, I've 9 groups without site, and I can't create it (and I don't want to re-create the O365 group). ![]()

Is that the confirmation email arrived after an user is added to the O365 group?
So I've to add my admin user to each group, receive the welcome email and then visit the SharePoint site?
Or I can do something from admin centre or with PowerShell to simulate this operation?

HiPepozzo ,
I doubt there is anything via PowerShell or the admin centre to do this.
I was able to hack this URL - https://outlook.office365.com/owa/testgroup@thinkshare.uk/groupsubscription.ashx?realm=thinkshare.uk&source=WarmingEmail&action=site to get the site to be created.
To be honest if users are going to use the SharePoint sites then once they are told where the sites are they can just navigate to them using the option in Outlook Web App in the last screenshot.
Kind regards
