Microsoft Teams - Copy Users Team Memberships to Another User

Microsoft Teams doesn't have any easy facility to export all the teams a particular user is a member of which can be useful if you want to copy the team memberships from one user to another.

Thankfully there is a way to do it though - since Microsoft Teams are actually O365 groups behind the scenes, we can utilise some O365 powershell cmdlet magic to accomplish this.

First, we need to connect to our O365 environment then import the session so we can access the cmdlets

$ex = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -Credential user@domain.com -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell -Authentication basic -AllowRedirection

import-pssession $ex

Next, let's get a list of all groups of the user we want to copy from - ie. the source user (be sure to adjust the source user variable to use your own target users email address)

$sourceuser = "user1@domain.com"

$Office365GroupsMember = Get-UnifiedGroup | where { (Get-UnifiedGroupLinks $_.Alias -LinkType Members | foreach {$_.primarysmtpaddress}) -contains $sourceuser}

You can then look at the $Office365GroupsMember variable to see a list of all the O365 groups that the source user is a member of

If you have a mixture of O365 groups AND MSTeams and want to isolate the MS Teams - you can filter the results further by using the command beloww

$o365teamsgroups = $office365GroupsMember | where {$_.serviceendpointuris -like "*MicrosoftTeams*"}

Now that we have our list of Teams, we can go through the list and add our target user to each team. But to do this we need the unique Group ID for each team which is included in the script below. Be sure to update the $targetuser variable with the email address of the user you wish to add to the groups.

$targetuser = "user2@domain.com"

foreach ($o365team in $o365teamgroups)

    {

    $teamprops = get-team -displayname $($o365team.displayname)

    write-host "Adding $targetuser to $($teamprops.displayname) team"

    add-teamuser -groupid $($teamprops) -user $targetuser

    }
