SharePoint site scripts and custom site designs
This is a nice introductory article on this topic via Deleted - https://robertschouten.com/2017/12/13/sharepoint-online-site-designs-and-site-scripts/.
"Before the availability of Site designs and Site scripts—there was no easy way to deliver an easy user experience to end users—for creating custom sites. There was no way to customise the Out Of the Box site creation process—other then redirect a user to a custom form. With Site designs we get the possibility to use the Out of the Box site creation proces and choose our custom defined Site design."
The option to trigger a Flow as part of this process for extra customisations makes this very versatile.
Thanks for mentioning my blog post!
- Anyone having success with site scripts in their targeting release tenants yet?
The PS cmdlets are successfully adding site-scripts and site-designs for me, but at the moment don't appear to be honoring the association between the two (executing associated site scripts with a given site design).
I'm not seeing the property page processing on site creation (using MS' JSON samples).Seeing same results here. But as stated in the message centre:
We'll be gradually rolling this out to Targeted Release customers in December and will complete the rollout in early 2018.
So maybe not all the bits and bytes are there yet? I will keep on trying and when succeeded, I'll let you know...
