Group Connected Site Taxonomy Feature not activated

Hi, 

 

If you created a SharePoint Team Site that is connected to a Office 365 Group the hidden taxonomy Feature is not activated. So you can`t create a managed metadata field. 

 

Does any body know is there a reason for that or is it supported to activate the Feature? 

 

I successfully activated the Feature via PnP but it is a bit strange that it is not activated by default.

    benny1831,

     

    I have a group-connected Modern team site and without doing anything I was able to create a managed metadata column.  MS might have changed this behavior either previously or since.  Is this on a site that's been around awhile or a brand-new site modern site?  I tested in a Communication and Team modern sites and didn't have this issue.
