Hi, welcome to the forum 👋

Difficult to know what the problem is as you’ve not posted any code or error messages. However, using Graph, the basic command to add a group owner is:

```PowerShell
New-MgGroupOwner -GroupId <group id> -DirectoryObjectId <user id>

```

If you do decide to share code, please make sure to use the \</\> button to format it correctly. If you cannot see the \</\> button it will be hiding under the gear icon.

You need to use either `$groupID.Id` for the parameter or

```auto
Select-Object -ExpandProperty Id

```

when you query the group.
