Set SharePoint access requests to owner group
Microsoft
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!

Hi - this isnt the same as being able to set the site to use the Owners group through script. this would be very useful to us as I would now like to set all of our existing sites (which are currently using hardcoded email addresses) to using the Owners group to service access requests.
Im kind of hoping the PnP Powershell Cmdlets might include an option for doing that - what do you think VesaJuvonen could we get that added to the "To Do" list?
Thanks
Nigel

Currently, this information is not exposed with the REST/CSOM APIs, so it cannot be controlled by using remote options (SPO or PnP PowerShell or code). We are looking into exposing this API with the CSOM in future, but there's no ETA for that work.
We also need to change the "Access Request" method to set to Owner Group as it is possible through interface.
We are writing a CSOM method to create site from template and the "access request" option need to be set in the code using CSOM.
Please, tell me if any update of CSOM library is forecast or give any solution to update this option by code using any other library...
Regards.

Hi Long Liang ,
There should be some new updates to CSOM to allow access request settings to be modified. Thanks!

Hello VesaJuvonen,
Is there any progress with this topic. Or at least clarify how it should be used when we want to configure web owner group?
We are looking for this right now as the requests are not processed.
Have a nice day
P.
