Graph API Script for channel creation of a SDS created group (powershell)

Question

I have the script below that I thought would work to convert the Office 365 group created in School Data Sync into a education class with the channels as specified.
The script runs in powershell and doesnt error out however nothing actually happens to my groups.
Does anyone have any suggestions or would be able to convert my code into a working example??

$templateBody = {
template@odata.bind = "https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/teamsTemplates('educationClass')";
group@odata.bind = "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups('groupID')";
channels[
{
displayName = "Channel 1";
isFavoriteByDefault = true
},
{
displayName = "Channel 2";
membershipType = "private"
},
{
displayName = "Channel 3";
isFavoriteByDefault = true
},
{
displayName = "Channel 4";
isFavoriteByDefault = true
}
]
memberSettings {
allowCreateUpdateChannels = false;
allowDeleteChannels = false;
allowAddRemoveApps = false;
allowCreateUpdateRemoveTabs = false;
allowCreateUpdateRemoveConnectors = false
}
}

$jsonBody = ConvertTo-Json $templateBody

Answer 1

Please use below graphscript to create channel in team:

$channelBody =
'{
"displayName": "Channel from Graph API",
"description": "Demo how to make a channel using graph api"
}'

$newChannel = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/teams/$($newTeam.id)/channels" -Method POST -Headers $headers -Body $channelBody

Hi @Adam Cartwright
You have to loop all by giving input file. keep required information in file.
$channels = import-csv -path c:******
foreach($channel in $channels)
{
take each value from csv
excute your script here

}

or use manual entry like you did above.
