Is Subsite really necessary in Sharepoint Online?
- Jun 04, 2024
tcboeira In the modern SharePoint online experience, subsites aren't recommended by Microsoft.
Here is the Microsoft official documentation you can refer for more information: Introduction to SharePoint information architecture - Guiding principle: the world is flat
If you are a site collection administrator on the "site" (site collection), you can check the subsite storage by navigation to Site Settings --> Storage Metrics.
Generally, URL is in this format:

Well then...
It's one thing to actually disable the possibilities of creating Subsites...
The second - one more doubt:
I use "Get-SPOSite -Limit ALL" or "Get-PnPTenantSite" but I can't find the "subsites" but the subsites don't appear in the list.
I imagine this is because a subsite is part of a website, although they appear to use different spaces.
I have a website
https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/site001
I created a subsite "subsite01"
https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/site001/subsite01
But in the commands above, only site001 comes to me and only its space. Subsite01 does not. I don't see this even using "Get-SPOSite -Limit ALL" or "Get-PnPTenantSite"
All this because I need to know exactly what each site - and of course if there is - each subsite can consume space. Where does he get this space from?
Well, these are just doubts about theory and thought.
Thank you for your help
