Is there a way to disable users from creating office 365 groups?
- Feb 16, 2018
open a Powershell session to Exchange online
export the settings of the default owamailbox policy
Get-OwaMailboxPolicy -identity default | Export-Csv C:\policy.csv
then create a new-owamailboxpolicy with the same settings as default
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd351067(v=exchg.160).aspx
after that edit the policy
Set-OwaMailboxPolicy -GroupCreationEnabled $false -Identity OwaMailboxPolicy:NewPolicy
And finally assign the policy to the user
Set-CASMailbox -Identity user@domain.com -OwaMailboxPolicy:NewPolicy
Same article I am referring to earlier. This article is saying create a group which will have access to create office 365 groups. Disable group creation permission globally for every user by default. Add the required users to the group for whom I am intend to give permission for group creation.
But I want to handle in bit another way. I just want to disable for only one user, not globally. Want to know is there any such feasibility!
oh, yes, that's right! then your options are: create a group with all members but one
(BTW, I'm experiencing the same issue with this link, but only this link)
