Add an user to group

[Sivakakarla]

I am trying to add an user to group.  I have tried using Azure AD and O365 groups. But always it is failing with below error. Any suggestions/solutions?

{

  "error": {

    "code": "Authorization_RequestDenied",

    "message": "Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.",

    "innerError": {

      "date": "2021-09-16T13:42:21",

      "request-id": "5a3d1c76-f892-400e-8d91-86dfa772ede5",

      "client-request-id": "5a3d1c76-f892-400e-8d91-86dfa772ede5"

    }

  }

}

You will need at least Owner rights to the MS 365 group if you want to add new members.

See: Groups in Microsoft 365 and Azure, and Which is Right for You

The account is already owner of the group. But no luck

[ekarim2020]

Can you check that the connection you are using can access the group and update membership via the Azure AD portal: https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/GroupsManagementMenuBlade/AllGroups

Add a new connection or view and modify the existing connection:

Re-check the action's connection:

Hi @Sivakakarla

I can easily reproduce the error. As a standard user with no admin rights, I don't have the privileges to add a user to a 365 group:

If I add my user account to the group owners (Demo Group 365), then I can add members to the group:

Here the flow succeeds and the user is added to the group:

The connection you are using for the Add member to group must be an owner of that group.

Did you find any solution for the above problem. If yes can you please post your solution. Thanks

The conclusion was that to add members to a 365 group you need to be an owner of that group:

I also am still getting this error after adding the connection's user as an owner of the target group.

Is there some other prerequisite configuration that this answer assumes is in place?
