It appears that "groups" within Office 365 do not all have the same capabilities.
I want to create a group with all the major features:
- Teams
- Sharepoint
- Calendar
- Yammer
Creating a group in Teams only do not create the other items.
Creating a group in Outlook (New Outlook web version in my case) will create a Sharepoint/Calendar/Email group; and then it is possible to create a team in Teams based on that group.
So the question is: how can I then add a Yammer functionality to this?
If I create a Yammer group, I'll have Yammer + Sharepoint but it won't be a Outlook group.
I basically agree with all this but I have to test again (create a group in yammer, see that I can use it as a full Outlook group, then create a Teams team based on that outlook group). I'll update. – Cedric H. – 2019-03-21T20:03:15.877
And thanks for the summarising all this by the way. – Cedric H. – 2019-03-21T20:03:29.670
When creating a group in Yammer, it will become a "Office 365 connected group" (which I understand is also a Outlook group, but that's not sure) only if "List this group in our network's group directory and search results." is selected, if not then the shared ressources are not created (in case the group is private). – Cedric H. – 2019-03-21T20:12:32.763
Then I don't see it in my Outlook groups, but if I try "discover groups" then I can see it listed, with ... myself as a member. But I don't seem to be able to join. In addition, when trying to create a Teams team based on a existing Outlook group, I don't see it listed. – Cedric H. – 2019-03-21T20:13:27.990

You are using new software that might not yet be up to the task. Perhaps you should address the question to the developers. We cannot here fix bugs in the software.
