Here’s a simple example of how to do so in Exchange Online:<\/p>\n
\n$distributionGroups = get-DistributionGroup -resultsize unlimited\n$distributionGroupsToRename = $distributionGroups | where {$_.DisplayName -like "NL -*"}\n$distributionGroupsToRename | set-distributiongroup -CustomAttribute2 "NLD" -BypassSecurityGroupManagerCheck\n<\/pre>\nAnd here in how to do so in the local AD:<\/p>\n
\nipmo activedirectory\n$groups = Get-ADGroup -Filter {mail -like "*"} -Properties * -SearchBase "OU=Distribution Lists,OU=Groups,OU=0 Generic,DC=XXXX,DC=LOCAL" -SearchScope Subtree -ErrorAction Stop\n$groupsToRename = $groups | where {$_.DisplayName -like "NL - *"}\n$groupsToRename | Set-ADGroup -Replace @{'extensionAttribute2'="NLD"} -ErrorAction Stop\n<\/pre>\nDon’t forget to set these parameters before you run O365GroupSync v0.56:
