That's odd! What error does it give when you do it from the web UI? Is there a chance the wrong credentials are being stored for some reason?

Is this a problem with all of your admin credentials or just some?

I will try to reproduce this on my end though I have not experienced this issue before.

Just a 'group creation failed' error instantly. Affecting all 5 of the
delegated admins I've spoken to. I can open a ticket with support if it's
not intended.

If you send me an email at [email protected] I can open a free support ticket for you. I'll also check on my end to see if anyone knows why this might happen.

Opened ticket 120033024003182, and attached a HAR browser trace to
facilitate troubleshooting.

Thank you. Is the operation done in the CSP tenant or the customer's?

Customers, the engineer assigned to the ticket I shared determined this is
a known issue and will be resolved after things return to normal post

It's never been possible to create or edit dynamic groups with AOBO as far as I know, and this is not a problem that suddenly appeared. I've never been able to create dynamic groups with AOBO, neither in GUI (portal.azure.com) nor with PowerShell AzureADPreview module.
