How can we improve Office 365 Groups?

← Office 365 Groups

Add auto reply capabilities to a group

Seems basic to me. We run a service company. An email comes into service@company.com

We want to forward the email to members in our group but also auto reply to the sender letting them know the email was received.

I could set up a 'paid for' user that does nothing but auto-reply and then forward to a distribution list .. but what a pain .. and cost.

    You can do this with PowerShell

    Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration -Identity 'DG Address" -AutoReplyState Scheduled -StartTime "12/16/2019 13:00:00" -EndTime "12/17/2019 13:00:00" -InternalMessage "Internal auto-reply message"

    Hi, is there any document available for this fix? looks like it was worked on since 2017.. I would love to see the information. thx.

    The group need to be created in Office 365, and the type need to be Office 365 group.
    Than run the command Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration..

    Dont works to DL.

    How about a document that says how to do this? I don't care about group owners being able to do it themselves.

    Cmdlet works (thanks) but means central it has to make the changes for group owners. Please make it possible for them to make this change through owa themselves.

    Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration works against O365 groups. I assume that is what many of you are asking for...

    Working on it was the answer in 2017. It is now 2019, when will this document be ready and where is it located?

    Is there any update on this yet? Checking
    Get-Command Set-UnifiedGroup -Args Cert: -Syntax
    doesn't show any obvious candidates for the Cmdlet mentioned above, unless I'm looking in the wrong place.
