Introduction It is possible to create M365 Groups and Teams with the same name, and there is currently no built-in way to prevent this. The new Team/Site/M365 Group is created with a random number appended to the Team name for the SharePoint site and m365 Group email address. Having duplicate names can cause confusion and increase risks, including: Wrongly Granting Permissions: Users may accidentally grant permissions to the wrong M365 Group or Team, leading to unauthorized access.

Introduction Renaming the ‘Files’ tab in Microsoft Teams to something more meaningful for your business, such as “All Access,” can enhance user experience. It can help to differentiate other document libraries added as tabs. The Files has been renamed to Shared for chats to show all the files and links that were sent in the chat, making it easier to find them- all in one place. However, it is not possible to rename the Files and Posts tabs from the UI within channels.

Introduction There are situations where you might want to reuse the M365 Group principals to assign permissions to other sites without creating additional Entra ID groups. This can be useful for: Adding M365 group members to a SharePoint site, such as an intranet site for ‘Human Resources’ managed by the ‘Human Resources’ M365 Group/Teams or a hub site managed by a ‘Service Desk’ M365 Group/Teams. Adding M365 group members to custom or out-of-the-box SharePoint groups, such as adding particular M365 group owners or members to custom groups created for additional libraries within a different site.
