How can we make Microsoft Teams better?

When granting access a Security group or Distribution list to a Team. Changes to the security groups/DL does not apply.

When granting access a Security group or Distribution list to a Team. Changes to the security groups/DL does not apply. If a user leaves the company or if we have new users, it is a manual process to add or remove them from a Team. Since we can select a Security group or Distribution list, changes to either should be reflected on the Team members.

    If regular Teams users understood about Security groups there would be 50k votes for this. Would be huge value. So annoying to have to manage groups and Teams separately.

    I have dozens of crufty old AD groups that I need to turn into Teams now that we've migrated to 365. Do I really have to do all this work twice?

    Mind numbing comes to mind....individual add users? No ability to use an AD group.

    How could you possibly not support AD security groups to control access....adding individuals is so against best practices.

    Ability to use live active directory groups in teams is critical even for smaller organizations. WE had that ability in Skype for Business. I was shocked this was not available in teams.

    This basically makes Teams unmanageable at a large scale. Must have!

    @Warren: this feature has been in queue for a couple years. Any news?

  • Brent Cantrell commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Without this capability teams in the enterprise will become unmanageable and will result in hundreds or abandoned teams.

    Would really help to remove and adding users to multiple team environments, especially when you're trying to multiple things at the same time for the individual, group management for owners would great here. Add a user to multiple groups, they then inherit everything associated with those groups, click and collect simples..

    @Warren: We have a really huge organization and need this feature ASAP. Can you give an update on the progress, please?

  • Shaun commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Making this feature available to us without us being obliged to upgrade our subscription would really help. This would make it possible to use Teams in an efficient manner within our organisation. The ability to use collaboration tools is now more important than ever. Thank-you.

    This is a MUST in order to efficiently manage an organisation. Please move this along.
