SharePoint online Modern teamsites
Have you enabled First Release in your Dev Tenant? see https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Set-up-the-Standard-or-First-Release-options-in-Office-365-3B3ADFA4-1777-4FF0-B606-FB8732101F47 for the instructions
MicrosoftHi everyone! Thanks for the interest in this area! I just wanted to chime in to reiterate a few of the previous replies and hopefully clarify any confusion around the recent MC post and rollout of this feature.
First Release for the new self-service site creation flow from SharePoint Home will start this week. This means it will take some time before it reaches all FR customers, so be patient! This will be the complementary UX (along w/ other details described in this blog post: https://blogs.office.com/2016/11/08/create-connected-sharepoint-online-team-sites-in-seconds/) to the admin settings - which HAS already been rolled out 100% to FR customers.
We rolled out the admin UI early so admins could review the available settings and make any updates prior to the UX being available. For details on these settings, check out this help article (also available from the MC post published last week announcing this change): https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Manage-site-creation-in-SharePoint-Online-e72844a3-0171-47c9-befb-e98b23e2dcf9?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
Salvatore Biscari - actually both! Sort of. What I mean is existing sites are getting a lot of these modern experiences (you can see it already in lists and libraries and site contents page). You'll soon be able to create modern pages and make those the home pages of your existing team sites. But this release will only attach an Office 365 group to a newly created site (via the new provision flow). Upgrading (or "groupifying") a classic team site is something in our backlog that we're looking at, but isn't available yet.
HTH!

I also do not have the new Admin Experience for creating sites as yet.
In addtion, provisioning new Team subsites in our current tennant is also now failing with the following message ' One or more field types are not installed properly'. Ticket was raised with Microsoft and they told me to swtich publishing features off accross all the sites then, activate it again. After completing this, we still have the same issue.
- ssquiresThanks for reporting - and sorry to hear...haven't run into that myself. Where are you getting this issue - when creating a classic site from the "create site" link or from when trying to create a subsite w/in a modern group?
Still dont have modern team sites in our FR tenant, when is this due to be fully rolled out ?
Cheers

Peter Stilgoe - check now. We've rolled to 100% First Release (both User and Tenant tracks). Thanks!
