Update the request access email in multiple SharePoint Online sites
Background Recently I had a request to update 50 plus SharePoint Online sites with a group email address so that this mailbox received all site access requests. This group was being used as the owners of the SharePoint sites and as it was a group they had not been receiving the access requests. As a result we decided we wanted to forward these requests to the group mailbox. Using the resources from Microsoft Docs I was able to set the request access email in a SharePoint site, using PowerShell. Using the guidance command provided in Microsoft Docs I was able to create a PowerShell script and added a step to repeat this on multiple sites by importing a spreadsheet (CSV) with the site addresses. If had done this manually it would have taken around a day to go to each site and set. Using the script in a matter of minutes the job was done and I was able to focus on other tasks. I did a few random spot checks to ensure it worked. What you need to get started Ensure you have installed
