Create a team from an existing group in Microsoft Teams

When you create a team from an existing Microsoft 365 group, you'll automatically share the same group privacy (public or private) and members as the original group.

1. Choose Teams on the left side of the app, then select Create and join teams and channels  at the top of your teams list.

2. Select Create team .                                                                                                                         

3. Choose From a group and then choose from the available Microsoft 365 groups.
   You’ll see a list of groups that you currently own, don't already have a team associated, and have less than 10,000 members.                                                                       

4. Select a group and a team with the same name will be created automatically. The team will share the same group privacy (public or private) and members as the original group.

What to do next 

As the creator of the team, you're the owner. Invite people to your team and manage team settings and permissions. For more info about roles and permissions, see Team owner, member, or guest capabilities in Teams.
