I don't want 100 different SharePoint sites. How to create private teams w/o a new site?
Guys. WTF. I've inherited a problem where a company of 50 people has 100 sharepoint sites - because users created different Teams for different projects, and Microsoft makes it incredibly opaque what...
Every M365 Group (and every Team) auto-creates a SharePoint site. You cant avoid it. What you CAN do going forward: use private channels inside a single Team instead of creating new Teams for every project. Private channels get their own mini SharePoint site but at least your main structure stays cleaner. For the existing mess, you can archive unused Teams through the admin center which hides the associated sites from active views.
