1 00:00:02,340 --> 00:00:04,740 Now that we know what modern site 2 00:00:04,740 --> 00:00:06,620 architecture looks like, let's start 3 00:00:06,620 --> 00:00:10,190 looking at how to manage sites, and let's 4 00:00:10,190 --> 00:00:12,265 first start by looking at how to create 5 00:00:12,265 --> 00:00:15,800 sites. Creating a site can either be done 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,730 via the Admin Center or PowerShell. Some 7 00:00:19,730 --> 00:00:21,470 of the information you will need are the 8 00:00:21,470 --> 00:00:25,230 title, the site address, or URL, language, 9 00:00:25,230 --> 00:00:27,590 the template you want to create the site 10 00:00:27,590 --> 00:00:31,590 in, the primary site administrator, the 11 00:00:31,590 --> 00:00:35,460 time zone, and the storage quota. Let's 12 00:00:35,460 --> 00:00:37,550 also talk a bit about this site 13 00:00:37,550 --> 00:00:40,360 administrators. Site administrator gives 14 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,870 you full access to the site, including 15 00:00:43,870 --> 00:00:47,690 content, permissions, and features. Each 16 00:00:47,690 --> 00:00:51,340 SharePoint site has only one primary 17 00:00:51,340 --> 00:00:54,050 administrator, but other users can be 18 00:00:54,050 --> 00:00:56,680 added as administrators with the same 19 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,370 permissions as the primary one, but really 20 00:01:00,370 --> 00:01:04,010 only one of them can be that one primary 21 00:01:04,010 --> 00:01:07,400 owner or administrator. The template 22 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,810 choices, and we're only going to talk 23 00:01:08,810 --> 00:01:10,985 about modern since that's where SharePoint 24 00:01:10,985 --> 00:01:13,550 is going, we first have the Team Site 25 00:01:13,550 --> 00:01:16,640 connected to an Office 365 group that can 26 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,380 only be created via the PnP PowerShell 27 00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:22,870 module for SharePoint and the template ID 28 00:01:22,870 --> 00:01:26,940 is TeamSite. For Communication Sites, the 29 00:01:26,940 --> 00:01:29,000 PowerShell template ID is 30 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,360 SITEPAGEPUBLISHING#0, and Team Site not 31 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,220 connected to an Office 365 group can be 32 00:01:36,220 --> 00:01:40,490 created with the STS#3 template. To create 33 00:01:40,490 --> 00:01:43,300 sites from the Admin Center, simply go 34 00:01:43,300 --> 00:01:46,110 into the Active Sites tab and click on 35 00:01:46,110 --> 00:01:49,340 Create, and you'll have two big options 36 00:01:49,340 --> 00:01:52,700 shown. As you can see on the screen, Team 37 00:01:52,700 --> 00:01:55,770 Site, which is a group connected Team 38 00:01:55,770 --> 00:01:59,360 Site, and Communication Site. If you want 39 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,130 to create a non‑group connected Team Site 40 00:02:02,130 --> 00:02:04,860 or a classic site, you will need to go 41 00:02:04,860 --> 00:02:08,350 into the other options on the bottom. Now 42 00:02:08,350 --> 00:02:11,100 let's talk a bit about PowerShell. First, 43 00:02:11,100 --> 00:02:13,880 let's start with the Team Site not 44 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,640 connected to an Office 365 group. We would 45 00:02:17,640 --> 00:02:20,930 use the new SPOSite PowerShell cmdlet, 46 00:02:20,930 --> 00:02:23,560 give the URL that we want to create the 47 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,240 site at, primary owner, title, template, 48 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,720 storage quota in megabytes, and we use the 49 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,530 STS#3 template that we have talked about 50 00:02:33,530 --> 00:02:36,830 before. About the storage quota, we will 51 00:02:36,830 --> 00:02:39,350 cover how SharePoint online storage is 52 00:02:39,350 --> 00:02:42,600 managed later in this course, but for now, 53 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,430 the storage quota is in megabytes, so I'm 54 00:02:45,430 --> 00:02:49,190 giving a 10 GB storage quota for this 55 00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:52,070 site. However, if your storage is managed 56 00:02:52,070 --> 00:02:55,120 in automatic mode, this will not be taken 57 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,250 into consideration, but it's a mandatory 58 00:02:58,250 --> 00:03:01,200 parameter for the PowerShell cmdlet. 59 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,070 Again, don't worry too much about storage 60 00:03:04,070 --> 00:03:06,950 yet, as we'll really cover it a lot more 61 00:03:06,950 --> 00:03:10,260 in depth later in this course. To create a 62 00:03:10,260 --> 00:03:12,890 Communication Site with PowerShell, it's 63 00:03:12,890 --> 00:03:15,170 the same procedure. Simply change the 64 00:03:15,170 --> 00:03:17,780 template to the Communication Site 65 00:03:17,780 --> 00:03:21,080 template. Now, if you want to do a new 66 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,450 Team Site connected to an Office 365 67 00:03:24,450 --> 00:03:26,910 group, we have to use PnP PowerShell 68 00:03:26,910 --> 00:03:30,100 module and then use the new PnP site 69 00:03:30,100 --> 00:03:32,750 PowerShell cmdlet, and the type would be 70 00:03:32,750 --> 00:03:36,640 Team Site. Give it a title and an alias, 71 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,155 which would be the male alias for that 72 00:03:39,155 --> 00:03:41,890 group, and, of course, also used in the 73 00:03:41,890 --> 00:03:45,340 URL of the SharePoint site. Remember that 74 00:03:45,340 --> 00:03:47,490 you can create other types of sites with 75 00:03:47,490 --> 00:03:50,620 PnP. For example, if I wanted to create a 76 00:03:50,620 --> 00:03:52,810 modern Communication Site with PnP 77 00:03:52,810 --> 00:03:56,380 PowerShell, I would use the new PnP site 78 00:03:56,380 --> 00:03:59,040 PowerShell cmdlet. The type of site would 79 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,650 be Communication Site, and I could even 80 00:04:01,650 --> 00:04:03,820 choose one of the three site design 81 00:04:03,820 --> 00:04:11,000 options from here, and, in this case, I will choose the Showcase one.
