Automate Renewal of Expiring M365 Groups or or Microsoft Teams teams
Reshmee AucklooSummary
It is a good practice to set lifecycle expiration policy to control sprawl. However that means that the group will get automatically deleted after they expire. The Teams/M365 groups owners will get email notifications to renew within a certain timeframe , however if the owners missed the renewal notifications for different reasons, it may lead to accidental data loss. The script can help identify M365 groups nearing expiration to renew them.
