Set SharePoint access requests to owner group

How can I set the Access Request Settings to the Owner group on an O365 SharePoint site ? I could not find any method in PnP PowerShell or CSOM... Set-PnPRequestAccessEmails only allows to set email...

It's set to Site Owner Group by default . You don't need to set it. If you need to send the request to a different email address  you can still do it using the same powershell.

    Nop. On my tenant by default access requests are defined to be sent to the user who created the site. Quite annoying when you have to handle a large number of sites.

      StephenRice - I know you were looking for feedback and pretty involved in the Access Request piece, have any insights on this one?

        Fouziya,


        Is the default group listed in the UI screenshot still a valid group on the site? In cases where no secondary address has been set and the default group is not available, I believe we fall back to the site creator. Thanks for confirming!
