Sharepoint Replace Root Site
Hi,
I'm not sure about Powershell i'm not a confident programmer and have just used Sharepoint to create pages.
Cheers
dandelly, is your tenant release preference standard release or targeted release. I think admin center feature is available currently in targeted release.
Swapping site with PowerShell is simple, if you need help with scripting it just ping me and I will guide you through it. You can even move original site to another location, like a backup.
Also review preparation actions from documentation before swapping.
Matti Paukkonen I think we are are standard release. I would be grateful if you could help with the scripting. Thanks.
dandelly I have had a go at the Powershell option tou suggested and I got the attached message. I researched how to get a tenant for my home site and tried to change the URL but that option is greyed out! Not sure where to go next??
Hi dandelly
You need to connect to tenant's SharePoint Admin Url with Connect-SPOService.
Connect-SPOService -Url https://<tenant URL>-admin.sharepoint.com
I have checked 2 tenants, one being targeted release and one standard and they both have the replace site option.
If you don't have the option then your particular tenant may not have had it released yet as suggested by other replies.
Andrew Hodges I have Targeted Release tenat set and it still doesn't allow me to replace site? See attached image below.
