Details:

Pursuant to MC673984 and MC673984, all private unlisted groups (also known as “Secret Groups”) will be retired on 11/11/2023. The retirement of this feature was first announced via the Message center on September 1, 2022 (MC424414). Subsequent announcements drove awareness of private unlisted (“secret”) groups being made inaccessible on September 1, 2023 (MC673984).
This is the 14-day reminder that private unlisted groups in Yammer will be permanently deleted and deprecated on November 11, 2023.
If you have already received an approved exception from Microsoft support delaying your migration to Native Mode, your private unlisted groups will not be affected by this change.
