Can't create private O365 Group from Office Admin Portal
- Jun 01, 2018
Both of these seem like bugs. I can certainly create private groups from the O365 admin center, and change the access type later on without issues. If you can reliably reproduce them, open a support ticket.

It seems everythins works again. We tried this for 2 consecutieve days from multiple machines, which means we can create private and public groups. Still though, we get the warning"You can't change the privacy setting after the group is created." in the O365 Admin center when we create a group. After the group is created we can change the AccessType, so the warning seems to be bogus.
The PowerShell failure is probably related to permissions. All Global Admins are required to use MFA. Exchange had issues, so still a number of scripts use a dedicated account that seems to fail this operation.
$ExchSession = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $AutomationAccountCredential -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
An Global Admin connecting through Connect-EXOPSSession works as a chime.
Thanks for the headsup
