/portal/personal Details
Whenever a user creates a "Blog" (via Delve), then this automatically creates a personal Site
e.g.
https://<tenant>/portals/personal/<username>
Two Questions:
1) I would like to see details about this site via powershell but the Get-SPOSite tells me that this site is not properly formed.
So how can i access details here ?
2) is this right that this site is ONLY used for Blog content ?
So a user would not (or is not allowed) to use this personal site as a file repository because OfB should only be used, correct ?
Or is there still be the possibility that users are able to upload files to /personal/sites + uploading stuff to OfB too ?
If yes, can an admin sees this globally (which users has a personal site + content + OfB data)?
thank you
Indeed what I'm seeing (and now I understand some conversations here in the Tech Community) is that Delve Blogs are hosted in the Office 365 Video Portal (https://<O365Domain>.sharepoint.com/portals/hub/)...so technically a user could discover this and even upload content to the Office 365 Video Portal but not to the blog itself since it's not a SPO site
now you need to explain me several things juan :)
* You said that Delve Blogs are running underneath of the Video Portal /portals/hub....but why it creates a /portal/personal/... Site then ?
* If the Blog is not a SPO site , how does it work then ?
Is there a way via powershell to get details for personal sites ? /portal/personal/...
(get-sposite -detailed does not work for this type)
Last question concerning "Templatenames" for Site Collections:
Is there somewhere a list where i could see which templatenames exists within O365?
video site collection Template POINTPUBLISHINGTOPIC#0
group site collection Template: GROUP#0
SPO Site collection template: PROJECTSITE#0
....etc (anything else) ?
thank you for your help

[..]Hey StefanFried, you may want to take a read here: https://en.share-gate.com/blog/office-365-delve-blogs-explained -- scroll down to the section "How does the Office 365 Delve Blog work behind the scenes on a technical level".
A little old article, but Benjamin explains the concept nicely.
