Team-ify a SPO Group connected site
I was starting to test this feature and saw something that confused me. I have 2 group sites that were created outside of Microsoft Teams - one created through standard SPO 'create team' and selectin...
- Mar 20, 2019Seems to be a bug IMHO...the Teamify experience should be the same in both cases

Have you by chance tried to do this after waiting some time? Maybe up to an hour? I’m wondering if the case here is because of the whole backend job that takes group owners and applies them as site collection admins to the connected site. When creating from SharePoint this happens I think immediately and might be delayed with planner group creation and that site collection permissions. Is delayed.
Just a hunch. Curious if you’ve gone back or gave it some time in that planned create instance.

- Robin NilssonMar 21, 2019Bronze ContributorYes, its been quite awhile. In fact, I created both the group sites last week, or maybe the week before that, specifically to test the teamify process. I was actually surprised to see the create team prompt show up - I was waiting for this feature to show up in our tenant.
Maybe I created these sites before the backend processing rolled out fully. I can create 2 new sites tomorrow and see if I get the same results.- Mar 21, 2019Na. Don’t bother. Shouldn’t matter. Was just a hunch. It should work on new and old sites. Thanks for response ;)
- Robin NilssonMar 21, 2019Bronze ContributorLol. The joys of being online - sitting at home, watching Star Trek Into Darkness, and creating sites from my iPad :)
And guess what. It worked!. My SPO site that came from my Planner group has the prompt.
So it does work as expected. And I did check the site - all looked appropriate - I was in the group as member and owner (at least I showed up in both members/owners), and the owners group was coded to site admin as well.
