Just created my first Communication Site!
Delighted that Communication Sites became enabled on my tenant today. Can't wait to get started with them. Congratulations to the Microsoft SharePoint team.

Hi John,
What was your process to create a communication site? would love to see if they're available on my tenant.

Just created a communication site in one of our tenants. Looks good I have to say.
One thing though, where as an Admin can I see the site? It's not in the SharePoint Admin Center, I can't see it in the Office Admin center looking at sites or groups (though the documentation says it isn't a group so that's expected).

Unfortunately we have this button disabled on our tenant. Would love to know if it's possible to create a communication site without this button.

You can follow this page for information on creating a communication site:
A good thing to note from this page:
- When you create a communication site, an Office 365 group is not created. However, in order to create a communication site, you must have permission to create Office 365 Groups in Outlook.
