    Hello RichardBegg,

     

    I had the same error and searching in Microsoft documentation I found this and based on it, I sent the request in the following way:

     

     

     

    {
 "template@odata.bind":"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/teamsTemplates('standard')", 
  "displayName":"My Sample Team",
  "description":"My Sample Team’s Description", 
  "members":[ 
     { 
       "@odata.type":"#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember",
       "roles":[ "owner" ], 
       "user@odata.bind":"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users('0040b377-61d8-43db-94f5-81374122dc7e')" 
      }
   ] 
}

     

     

     

    The request was success.

Hi LeandroJJ 

 

Thanks for the pointer, I had thought I'd tried that but on reflection I believe I dropped the user off the beginning!

 

It had resolved that error, but I'm still unable to create a Team due to the already reported and being investigated issue with the backend template lookup:

 

Failed to execute Templates backend request CreateTeamFromTemplateRequest
 
Thanks again.
 
Richard.
