[BUG] Pnp Template provisioning xml, create SharePoint group gives error: Cannot find group

[hajjkh]

I'm doing pnp template provisioning to a new group-based SharePoint teamsite. I do this with an Azure function with managed identity for authentication. In the logging I see this error:

error (in Dutch):

Microsoft.Azure.Functions.PowerShellWorker Error: 0 : 2024-04-04 08:25:59.1702 [PnP.Framework] [0] [Error] ExecuteQuery threw following exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerException: Kan groep niet vinden.

error (translated to Englisch)

Microsoft.Azure.Functions.PowerShellWorker Error: 0 : 2024-04-04 08:25:59.1702 [PnP.Framework] [0] [Error] ExecuteQuery threw following exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerException: Cannot find group.

Code:

<pnp:Security>

        <pnp:SiteGroups>
          <pnp:SiteGroup
              Title="TestGroup"
              Owner="{associatedownergroup}"
              OnlyAllowMembersViewMembership="false">
              <pnp:Members>
                  <pnp:User Name="c:0t.c|tenant|someGuid"></pnp:User>
              </pnp:Members>
          </pnp:SiteGroup>
      </pnp:SiteGroups>

      </pnp:Security>

What is going wrong? I expect a new provisioned SharePoint group named "TestGroup"
