New Communication Sites
- Jun 29, 2017
/sites and /teams depends on your setting the the Sharepoint Online admin UI. You can pick which one self-service sites are created under, and you have set it to /teams in your tenant. But agree, you might want comm sites on /sites. So you would have to switch it to /sites, create the comm sites, and switch it back so that Groups go on /teams.

I've often thought about creating Groups and Teams under /teams rather than /sites, as a means of avoiding any potential URL conflicts, but I've been hesitant to make that split. Is doing so a fairly common practice, or have most people been like me and kept everything under /sites?

I've made a practise to have self service under /teams, and more authoritive sites under /sites. Just as a means to separate them somewhat. Would be awesome if we could set up some rules as to where sites go on the managed paths, but for now we set it to /teams with clients, and switch it for the cases where we need to.- Clint LechnerJun 29, 2017Iron Contributor
Ever since I saw this setting, I thought to myself, "well, clearly this setting is going to get some additional features so it can be more granular......" still waiting on that..........

"These new sites are created under /teams. Wouldn't it make more sense for them to be under /sites? Or was this intentional"
I've just started playing with this ( who hasn't? ) in my new development tenant. The communciation sites are created under /sites for me and the team sites are created under /sites too. this seems to be differnt from what you are reporting.
