Connecting a Top-level SharePoint Online Site Collection to a New Microsoft 365 Group

Microsoft offers a PowerShell cmdlet that enables you to connect a top-level SharePoint Online site collection to a new Microsoft 365 group.  Refer to the Microsoft article Set-SPOSiteOffice365Group (Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell) | Microsoft Docs for details.

You can also create group connections in bulk.  Refer to the Microsoft article Connect to a Microsoft 365 group | Microsoft Docs for details.

Configuring Hub Sites

Hub sites in SharePoint Online provide a way to connect modern team sites and communication sites so that they share the following experiences without the constraints of a site/subsite relationship:

·Common navigation

·News roll up

·Search within a hub

You can register/unregister a hub, associate sites with the hub and change hub associations, and edit hub site settings either from the Content Matrix Console or using PowerShell.

Note:  You can also register and associate hub sites as part of a migration to SharePoint Online if you choose to promote first level sites to site collections.
