In my previous post, Getting Started with Office 365 Groups, I outlined many of the steps necessary for controlling the creation of Office 365 Groups. I initially realized that this process is cumbersome but had it reinforced when I walked someone through it recently.
So, I have a new module: xAzureAD.DirectorySetting. It provides a single function: Set-AzureADGroupsSetting.
This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters.

| Set-AzureADGroupsSetting -GroupCreationAllowedGroup "O365 Groups Creators" -EnableGroupCreation $False |
That is it. All of the other parameters are there for the other settings in the Group.Unified template, but I have done nothing more than set them to a Boolean type, if intended.
