Groupify a Modern Site
Hi Folks,
If we use the option to create a Modern site without a connection to a group, then is there an option to "groupify" it later either through powershell or in a similar way through UI like on classic sites?
- Hi, as per the replys in this post, this is something Microsoft is considering: "this is an option we're currently evaluating (but note that it would only be available to site collections, not subsites)." look at the answers by Sean Squires https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-SharePoint-Blog/Updates-to-SharePoint-self-service-site-creation/ba-p/218971
In the post, is the consideration only for the UI option? what about using the powershell command?
I did try the powershell option to groupify a modern site and it seems to have worked but Im not sure if that is supported or not.
I used the powershell from here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/transform/modernize-connect-to-office365-group
- We have already discussed this in other threads and the official answer is that there is not support Today to Groupify sites that are modern sites (for instance a communication site)...you will probably be able to Groupify the site using PowerShell, but as I said, this is not supported Today
