Still not seeing integration with Office 365 Groups

[Scott Bentley]

I see it in the Admin section, but new Groups are not being created.  Thoughts on rollout time lines?

[#2]

Could be your configuration. Our corporate network disallowed O365 Group creation for regular users (using PowerShell), which seems to be preventing us from creating these groups.

[#3]

In addition to Tom's suggestion about configuration - when you say you see it in the Admin section, be sure that you have Enforce Office 365 sign-in and its in a Committed state. See more info here: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Enforce-Office-365-identity-for-Yammer-users-008f940b-6bec-...

Let me know if you are still stuck!

[#4]

Thank you both.  I had locked down creation of Office Groups to certain users (including myself) - I'm also a Global Admin.

From our settings perspective, we look ready to go.  Just not "happening" yet.

[#5]

Same here, not seeing connected groups yet either for those who have the ability to create O365 Groups.

[#6]

Make sure that you don't have other domains pending to be merged into your canonical network. Currently only 1-to-1 yammer network to O365 tenant is supported.

Go to your Network Admin section > Network Migration > Next and ensure there are no outstanding domains to migrate.

Also, when you create a new group (if everything is in order), navigate away from the group then back into it. This should trigger the provisioning of all the O365 resources and you should see the O365 pane on the right hand side.

Thanks!  We have a bunch of networks we migrated but it seems two were not completed (that had no users).  Will migrate those and see if I now see the groups integrationl.

I have the same issue... all requirements: check, but nothing.

enforce O365 identity für Azure AD: check

only 1 zu 1:  1 Office 365 tenant with only one domain rakoellner.info with only one Yammer tenant rakoellner.info: check

new groups: check, but without O365 groups

Try logging out and back in.

[#10]

I had two as well - I'm working on this now.  Hoping this was it.

[#11]

nothing :) I think I have to wait.

Moreover I see the new UI only the connection is missing.

[#12]

Interesting. And you do have Groups creation turned on in your tenant?

[#13]

After completing the network merge yesterday, I'm still not seeing connected Yammer groups today after creating a new group in Yammer.  Double checked in the Azure Portal and do not see the group.

Is there anyone who has O365 group creation limited to select indivdiuals who is actulally seeing their Yammer groups be O365 group connected?

[#14]

Hey Erin,

After I merged the final two networks, integration between Yammer and Office 365 Groups started working in our tenant.

I do have my Group creation restricted to one AD group - and I'm not seeing any issues yet.

Have you tried created a group yet - assuming yes?

[#15]

Thanks Scott!  Yes, I've succesfully created groups from Planner and ExO.  I created a Yammer group this morning, but it's not connected to groups.

[#16]

Just figured it out.  Was creating a Yammer group as private/unlisted, so it wasn't making the connection.  Has to be public or private (listed).

I'm not seeing integration with O365 groups either. My Yammer admin security settings show that "Connected groups are turned on for this network" and has been for at least a couple of weeks. Tech support says it hasn't been released publicly yet, but we're on first release. How can we get this feature turned on? (Thanks!)

[#19]

I just sent you a PM, Gillian, to get some more details. Thanks!

[#20]

Thanks @Erin Scupham. I'd been scratching around for awhile trying to figure out why it suddenly wasn't working. As soon as I ticked 'Listed', the Office 365 Groups stuff appeared again.

[#21]

We were experiencing this issue as well, opened a support ticket and the agent said the only way to trigger the O365 Group creation was to change the entire tenant to first release. That did work but unfortunately we lost the names that we had for limited first release. Be sure you have a list of the names if you are on limited first release before changing this. Once changed to first release you can change back to your previous tenant settings.

[#22]

First Release shouldn't be required for Office 365 Connected Yammer Groups. If you PM me your support ticket number, I can follow up to see if there is anything else going on here.

I am also in such a situation, but a bit different : Settings say that "Connected Groups are not yet activated for this network", but... I already have Yammer Groups connected to Office Groups !!

And my issue is that I just created a New Yammer Groups, but this one is not connected to Office Groups... very strange...

[#24]

Hello!

•  I'm trying to figure it out how to connect old Yammer groups with Office 365 groups, any ideas? I only see a couple new groups with the O365 connection, what is the trigger that makes Yammer groups connect?
