You can use the below PowerShell script to get the details of the SPO Site Collections for the Office 365 Groups.
$cred=Get-Credential $exchangeSession = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri "https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/" -Credential $cred -Authentication "Basic" -AllowRedirection Import-PSSession $exchangeSession -DisableNameChecking Connect-SPOService -Url https://tenantname-admin.sharepoint.com -credential $cred $Groups=Get-UnifiedGroup |Where-Object {$_.SharePointSiteUrl -ne $null} $Groups | Foreach-Object{ $Group = $_ $GName=$Group.SharePointSiteUrl Get-SPOSite -Identity $GName -Detailed |fl }
To add a member to Office 365 Groups, you can use the below one.
Add-UnifiedGroupLinks -LinkType Members -Identity "engineering" -Links "alland@XXXXX.onmicrosoft.com
I am sure that the Office 365 Group's SPO File audits are available in "Audit log search" in protection centre [https://protection.office.com/#/unifiedauditlog]. Screen-shot of the audit logs for O365 groups is posted below.

SInce I have to do both, it has made it very difficult for me. I have a lot of users just going in creating stuff and then never delete it. How do I manage that?
