Synchronise Office 365 Group Members

Question:

I have a list of internal users who are assigned to an office 365 group A. We now want to make other office 365 groups (B, C, ...) that will inherit/synchronize all users from group A and allow for additional external or internal users to be added/removed (unique per team). What is the best architecture to achieve this result?

What I Tried:

Within Azure AD you can change an office group membership type from Assigned to Dynamic user. This allows me to set the department attributes per user to "group A" for example and then create Dynamic membership rules per group which checks for these department attributes to assign users.
The issue with this is that we have 30+ groups and 100+ users. This becomes a lot of work to assign appropriate attributes to each user and rules for each group.

I would appreciate it if there are any better architecture implementations. Thanks in advance!

I think I understand what you want to do. If you want a dynamic group to use an existing assigned group membership as a membership rule the syntax is user.memberof -any (group.objectId -in ['value']) where the value is the group ID of group A. The tricky part is that to add an individual user to that group you have to make a rule that says user.userPrincipalName -eq "myloginid@domain"

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
