23. Office 365 Groups things to know Eligible to use the NGSC for sync as of Sept release Anyone can create a group and available in the Global Address List by default A group can’t have more than 10 owners and a user can’t create more than 250 groups Currently not supported in Outlook 2016 on the Mac Groups with more than 1000 members are supported but will decrease performance When a group owner leaves, all content is saved but new admin must be set at high level Office 365 Groups can be used as security groups in SharePoint (but not O365 Video) Group site collections exist under “/sites” managed path but cannot be seen via SP Admin Center

24. Joining vs Subscribing On creation, the option is available to subscribe all new members automatically • Joined = only appear in group mailbox • Subscribed = receives in private inbox and group

29. Office 365 Admin Center Management Options – User Interface Office 365 Admin App Azure AD Admin Portal Exchange Admin Console Outlook Groups App Clients – (Outlook, Planner, PowerBI)

30. Demo!

31. Management Options – Scripting Powershell Manipulating groups Manipulating group membership Owners | Members | Subscribers $creds = Get-Credential $Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange –ConnectionUri ` https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $creds -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection Import-PSSession $Session Establish a remote session to Exchange Online

32. Useful Scripts for Groups to Get Started Create group New-UnifiedGroup –DisplayName “Legal” –Alias “Legal” –EmailAddresses legal@domain.com Rename group Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity “Legal” -Alias “Legal” -DisplayName “New Legal” -PrimarySmtpAddress legal@domain.com View all subscribers, members or owners for a group Get-UnifiedGroupLinks -Identity “Legal” -LinkType Subscribers Show detailed info for all groups Get-UnifiedGroup | select Id,Alias, AccessType, Language,Notes, PrimarySmtpAddress, ` HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled, WhenCreated, WhenChanged, ` @{Expression={([array](Get-UnifiedGroupLinks -Identity $_.Id -LinkType Members)).Count }; ` Label='Members'}, ` @{Expression={([array](Get-UnifiedGroupLinks -Identity $_.Id -LinkType Owners)).Count }; ` Label='Owners'} | Format-Table Alias, Members, Owners

33. Managing Group Creation The old way but still can be used for OWA and Outlook 2016 Use an OWA Mailbox Policy to disable group creation for ALL users or a SUBSET of users  This does NOT disable group creation EXCEPT when trying to create through Outlook/Exchange  Creating groups in other clients/admin areas (PowerBI, Planner, etc…) would NOT disable Set-OwaMailboxPolicy -Identity test.comOwaMailboxPolicy-Default -GroupCreationEnabled $false

34. Managing Group Creation through Azure AD The new way uses Azure AD  No longer dependency on Exchange so it passes throughout Office 365  If OWA policy exists and AAD policy is enabled, OWA policy will be ignored  You can do 2 things:  Disable the default ability of everyone to create a new Office 365 Group  Point to an AAD group (Office 365 Group or Distribution Group) that contains a list of people who are allowed to create groups  This group cannot have a group in it, must be individual users  Users with higher tenant roles already have access (company admin, mailbox admin, etc…)  Prerequisites  Azure AD Version 1.1.117.0 or later (currently preview)

35. Managing Group Creation through Azure AD Steps to setup 1. Retrieve the Object ID for the group that contains the authorized users  Use Azure AD portal to get Object ID  Get-MsolGroup cmdlet to discover GUID via PowerShell 2. Use PowerShell to update the Azure AD policy  Pass the GUID of your authorized user group to GroupCreationAllowedGroupId Connect-MsolService $template = Get-MsolAllSettingTemplate | where-object {$_.displayname -eq “Group.Unified”} $setting = $template.CreateSettingsObject() $setting[“EnableGroupCreation”] = “false” $setting[“GroupCreationAllowedGroupId”] = “7edd1d0b-557d-43e6-b583-4f3e0198c167” New-MsolSettings –SettingsObject $setting 3. Confirm using PowerShell and test creating a group Get-MsolAllSettings | ForEach Values

36. Group Guest Access You can now grant external users access to Office 365 Groups  Does not comply with tenant blacklist/whitelist  Enabled by default  Overall Group guest access is managed at the tenant level  Guests cannot view IRM protected files  Guests needs to access via browser  Guests cannot:  Be an owner  View the GAL  View Group members or contact cards  Access Planner  Be blocked by specific user Feature Guest user allowed? Create a group No Add/remove group members No Delete a group No Join a group Yes, by invitation Start a conversation Yes Reply to a conversation Yes Search for a conversation Yes @mention a person in the group No Pin/Favorite a group No Delete a conversation Yes "Like" messages No Manage meetings No View group calendar No Modify calendar events No Add a group calendar to a personal calendar No View and edit group files Yes, if enabled by tenant admin Access the group OneNote notebook Yes, via link from group member Browse groups No

37. Group Guest Access Group owners can invite external people to be guest users Group members can request an invitation for an external person

38. Group Guest Access Admin Controls Guest addition to organization • Allow invitation to guests users in the organization • Office 365 Portal – Settings & Privacy > Sharing Guest addition to groups • Allow adding of guests to any group within the organization. • Office 365 Portal – Services & Add-Ins > Office 365 groups • Allow adding of guests to a specific group in the organization (only available in Power Shell) Guest access to group resources • Allow guests to access to any Office 365 group resources • Office 365 Portal – Services & Add-Ins > Office 365 groups

39. Group Guest Access Powershell Steps to block for tenant 1. Ensure that sharing is allowed in the SharePoint Admin Center / O365 Admin Center 2. Use PowerShell to update the Azure AD policy (if settings object exists) $template = Get-MsolAllSettingTemplate | where-object {$_.displayname -eq “Group.Unified”} $settings = Get-MsolSettings -SettingId $settings.ObjectId $Value = $GroupSettings.GetSettingsValue() $Value["AllowToAddGuests"] = "False" $Value["AllowGuestsToAccessGroups"] = "True" Set-MsolSettings -SettingId $settings.ObjectId -SettingsValue $Value 3. Set AllowGuestsToAccessGroups to False to instantly disable all external users from accessing groups

40. Group Guest Access Powershell Steps to block external access for a specific group 1. Ensure that sharing is allowed in the SharePoint Admin Center / O365 Admin Center 2. Use PowerShell to update the Azure AD policy for the group (if no group settings exist) $group = Get-MsolGroup -All | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -eq “GROUP DISPLAY NAME”} $groupsettings = Get-MsolAllSettings -TargetObjectId $group.ObjectId $template = Get-MsolSettingTemplate -TemplateId 08d542b9-071f-4e16-94b0-74abb372e3d9 $setting = $template.CreateSettingsObject() $settingsnew = New-MsolSettings -SettingsObject $setting -TargetObjectId $group.ObjectId $settings = Get-MsolAllSettings -TargetObjectId $group.ObjectId $value = $GroupSettings.GetSettingsValue() $value["AllowToAddGuests"] = "False" Set-MsolSettings -SettingId $settings.ObjectId -SettingsValue $value -TargetObjectId $group.ObjectId 3. Run a check to see if it worked (Get-MsolAllSettings -TargetObjectId $group.ObjectId).GetSettingsValue() | foreach values

41. Configuring multi-domain support Example  Main domain is contoso.com  Default accepted domain is service.contoso.com (where groups get created by default)  You have a sub-domain called students.contoso.com and groups.contoso.com Configured with Exchange Address Policy (EAP) via Exchange Powershell Option 1: All Office 365 Groups built under groups.contoso.com domain New-EmailAddressPolicy -Name Groups -IncludeUnifiedGroupRecipients ` -EnabledEmailAddressTemplates "SMTP:@groups.contoso.com" -Priority 1

42. Configuring multi-domain support - Continued Option 2: Control what sub-domains Office 365 groups are created in by attribute  Set users which have their Department attribute set to Students to create groups by default in the students.contoso.com domain New-EmailAddressPolicy -Name StudentsGroups -IncludeUnifiedGroupRecipients -EnabledEmailAddressTemplates ` "SMTP:@students.contoso.com” ManagedByFilter {Department -eq 'Students'} -Priority 1  All other users will create groups in the groups.contoso.com domain New-EmailAddressPolicy -Name OtherGroups -IncludeUnifiedGroupRecipients -EnabledEmailAddressTemplates ` "SMTP:@groups.contoso.com” -Priority 2  Only admins can perform this  Use the –RecipientFilter for available properties to filter on (company, city, office, etc…)  If you remove domain you need to update EAPs  Max limit of 100 EAPs per organization

43. What about governance?

44. Security and Compliance eDiscovery through Exchange and SharePoint Data loss prevention Preservation policies Audit log and Content search

45. Management tidbits  Establish governance plan for groups  Establish AAD group creation policies  Monitor SharePoint Online Storage to ensure group sites not overtaking total storage  Establish a process to have groups admin support easily available for users  Run reports to try to track groups sprawl  Use UsageGuidelinesUrl and ClassificationList  Migrate multiple distribution lists to Office 365 groups – Link – (also via GUI)

46. A few technical options Remove groups email from GAL (global address list) Accept/Reject certain users from sending emails to groups Set-UnifiedGroup –Identity $groupAlias –HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $true $groupAlias = “TestGAL” –RejectMessagesFromSendersOrMembers or -AcceptMessagesOnlyFromSendersOrMembers Set-UnifiedGroup –Identity $groupAlias –RejectMesssagesFromSendersOrMembers dmadelung@concurrency.com $groupAlias = “TestHide” Hide group members unless you are a member of the private group $groupAlias = “TestSend” Set-unifiedgroup –Identity $groupAlias –HiddenGroupMembershipEnabled:$true

47. Demo!

48.  External access  Groups SharePoint sites expanding  Group classification  Group usage guidelines URL  Groups iPad app  Privacy type conversion  Dynamic membership (requires Azure AD premium)  eDiscovery and Litigation available  Ability to change privacy type of created Group  Azure AD creation restriction  Upgrade a DL to a Group via GUI  Groups usage reporting As of 12/5/2016 What’s new in Office 365 Groups
