New-MgGroup not working using BodyParameter (asking for mailEnabled value despite being set) #3212
Description
Describe the bug
I am trying to create a new Microsoft 365 Group (before converting it to a Teams team).
I am trying to create the group using the New-MgGroup Cmdlet along with the -BodyParameter parameter, especially to select the group owner.
The same code used to work in version 2.25 and below, suddenly stopped working in 2.26.1. I installed v2.25 back and it works again with this version.
Expected behavior
PS> New-MgGroup -BodyParameter $params
DisplayName Id MailNickname Description GroupTypes
----------- -- ------------ ----------- ----------
TEST ORG 123 #groupId# test-org-123 test {Unified}
How to reproduce
$params = @{
DisplayName = "TEST ORG 123"
MailEnabled = $False
MailNickName = "test-org-123"
SecurityEnabled = $True
GroupTypes = "Unified"
Description = "Test"
}
New-MgGroup -BodyParameter $params
Throws the below error :
New-MgGroup : A value is required for property 'mailEnabled' of resource 'Group'.

SDK Version
2.26.1
Latest version known to work for scenario above?
2.25
Known Workarounds
It works this way :
New-MgGroup @params
But then I can't use the following parameter in the set :
"owners@odata.bind" = @(
"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users('#userId#')"
)
