 ## Permanently delete a Microsoft 365 group
 
 Sometimes you may want to permanently purge a group without waiting for the 30 day soft-deletion period to expire. To do that, start PowerShell and run this command to get the object ID of the group:
- 
- ```powershell
-Get-MgDirectoryDeletedItem
+
+First, install Microsoft Graph PowerShell.
+
+Then run the following command:
+
+```powershell
+Connect-MgGraph -Scopes "Group.ReadWrite.All"
 ```
 
-Take note of the object ID of the group, or groups, that you want to permanently delete.
-  
-> [!CAUTION]
-> Purging the group removes the group and its data forever. 
-  
-To purge the group run this command in PowerShell:
+Then use this command to list deleted groups:
+
+```powershell
+Get-MgDirectoryDeletedGroup
+```
+
+Note down the ID of group you are looking to permenantly delete and then run the following command:
 
 ```powershell
-Remove-MgDirectoryObject -DirectoryObjectId <objectId>
+Remove-MgDirectoryDeletedItem -DirectoryObjectId <ID of the group to be permenantly deleted>
 ```
 
 To confirm that the group has been successfully purged, run the  *Get-MgDirectoryDeletedItem*  cmdlet again to confirm that the group no longer appears on the list of soft-deleted groups. In some cases it may take as long as 24 hours for the group and all of its data to be permanently deleted.
