FocusedInboxOn parameter cannot be found

I am trying to enable Focused Inbox for everyone in my organization. When I follow the instructions here:

https://support.office.com/en-us/article/configure-focused-inbox-for-everyone-in-your-organization-613a845c-4b71-41de-b331-acdcf5b6625d I receive the following error:

Set-OrganizationConfig -FocusedInboxOn $true
A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'FocusedInboxOn'.

  • The parameter might not be available depending on the permissions you have, to be on the safe side make sure to run it as Global administrator (or any member of the "Organization Configuration" role group). In addition, it might not be available for certain "flavors" of O365, say the German cloud.

      When I run Set-OrganizationConfig I the following:

      GuestsUsageGuidelinesLink                                 :
      FocusedInboxOn                                            :
      FocusedInboxOnLastUpdateTime                              : 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM
      ForestConfigVersion                                       :

       

      I am in the US so not sure why this would not work.

        Also, I am executing this as a Global Admin so it should not be a permissions issue.
