Enhancement: extra options when adding SharePoint Group members for adding Azure AD groups #3787

@martinlingstuyl

Description

@martinlingstuyl

In our spo group user add command, we currently do not allow to add Azure AD groups as a user.

We could add the following option to allow for this

Option Description
--aadGroupId [aadGroupId] The object Id of the Azure AD group to add as a member. If multiple groups needs to be added, the Id's have to be comma separated. Specify either userName, email, aadGroupId or aadGroupName.
--aadGroupName [aadGroupName] The name of the Azure AD group to add as a member. Specify either userName, email, aadGroupId or aadGroupName.

Remarks

Update: We've renamed the commands to spo group member in #4087.

When adding groups by name, you cannot use a comma separated list of multiple names. The comma could be part of the display name.

Examples

Add an Azure AD group as a SharePoint Group Member
