- Jul 14, 2021
Corbenik you can also copy pages, including any images on them, to a different site using a simple flow in Power Automate:

Corbenik I found this post while researching my own issue. I couldn't find instructions for copying pages in Classic. For those that don't want to go the Automate route, I'm including the Classic steps.
As for the error messsage, as an SCA, I too received the error you described and my resolution was to add my account to the Owners group on the destination site (my account was only listed as a SCA).
1. Go to the Site Pages library.
2. Click Return to Classic SharePoint.
3. Click the File tab in the ribbon. Select the checkbox of the page to copy. Click Send to and then select Copy.
4. Enter the link of the destination site’s Site Pages library. Rename the page (optional). Click Ok.
5. In the Copy dialog, click Ok.
6. Close the Copy dialog box.
7. The copied file will appear in the target library.

- NinaGeloNov 01, 2022Copper ContributorThank you for all these suggestions. I have tried just about all of them but cannot seem to get the contents of the Site Pages to carry over into the destination library. The file is copied, but when I open the page from the destination library, there is only the title and none of the content. I have tried the Power Automate solutions and the Copy solution within the ribbon in the Classic View. Any ideas?

NinaGelo See my earlier post. The original Power Automates are no longer valid, if you adapt your Power Automate to the Print Screen ive posted on June 6th you should be able to copy the pages and assets of you wish.

Reddimension Thank you so much. I tried that one too and have the same problem. There is no content displayed on the page when it's moved to the destination library.
