    Configure Group Mapping in User Mapping

    When configuring the user mapping, to map the permissions of the group in the source to the group in the destination, enter the group names in the Source Username and Destination Username text boxes.

    *Note: This function applies to the security groups, Microsoft 365 groups, and mail-enabled security groups. Distribution lists cannot use this function.

    *Note: In User Mapping, users can only map to users and groups can only map to groups.

    When there are more than one groups in the destination with the name you entered in the Destination Username text box, among the groups with that name, if:

    - There are only Microsoft 365 groups and one security group with that same name, the permissions of the group in the source will be mapped to that security group. - There are only Microsoft 365 groups and one mail-enabled security group with that same name, the permissions of the group in the source will be mapped to that mail-enabled security group. - There are more than one security group and/or mail-enabled security group with that same name, the permissions of the group in the source will be mapped to one of those security groups/mail-enabled security groups randomly.

    When there is more than one group in the source with the name you entered in the Source Username text box, the permissions of the source groups with that same name will be mapped to the entered destination group.

    If the group in the source and the group in the destination share the same name, the permissions of the group in the source will be mapped to the group in the destination automatically. There is no need to configure the group mapping in User Mapping in this situation.
