Restoration of a deleted Office 365 Group is launched!

Johan Åslund tweeted about a support article showing how to restore an Office 365 Group using Powershell. This is a long wanted feature, and you will be able to restore a soft deleted Group within 30 days of it being deleted. Recovering the whole Group. Later the functionality will be available in the Office 365 admin UI.

The article is dated March 16th, so seems they have slipped this awesome news by us on the back channel. The news is also listed on the Office 365 Roadmap as launched.

If you have waited on this before recommending usage of Groups, now there is no stopping you.
