If you've deleted an Office 365 group, it's now retained by default for a period of 30 days. Within that period, you can now restore the group and its associated apps and data via a new PowerShell cmdlet. For additional information please go to https://aka.ms/groupssoftdelete.

I've tested this and yes the group and files have restored but not the team I had setup in teams
the size of the group was tiny, probably only 2mb worth of files.
Does it just generally take quite a while for a teams team recreate itself?

Hi Chris,
Once the 30 days is over, I understand that the group will be purged.
Is it still possible to submit a help ticket to Microsoft within 14 days after 30 days to have it recovered?
Kind Regards

installed AzureADPreview 2.0.0.127 and Windows management Framework 5.0 on windows 7 64bit. But when I run Get-AzureADMSDeletedGroup, I get "The term 'Get-AzureADMSDeletedGroup' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Do I need to install anything else in order to run this PowerShell?
Thanks.

Is it possible to restore a group if the domain name of the group has been removed from the tenant since deletion of the group?

I found this very useful to check all groups https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/office/Office-365-Groups-Report-7e3e161b

What's the procedure for permanent deletion? the -permanent switch is designated for internal Microsoft Use only according to the documentation for the Remove-UnifiedGroup command. And attempting to use it in Azure PowerShell results in the following error:
A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Permanent'.
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Remove-UnifiedGroup], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NamedParameterNotFound,Remove-UnifiedGroup
+ PSComputerName : ps.outlook.com

Hey Chris,
We have a unique scenario that I'd like to get some feedback for..
-Office 365 group gets deleted
-30 days pass
- Retention policy is in place ( which includes groups)
-what happens to the group? is it still recoverable or searchable in the compliance portal?
