UPDATE: SharePoint Online team sites + Office 365 Groups moving beyond First Release
I see we have 2 distinct sets of SharePoint sites...
1) The tranditional SharePoint sites are found under https://<companyname>.sharepoint.com/ with subsites at https://<companyname>.sharepoint.com/<sitename>
2) The new group Sharepoint Team Sites are found under https://<companyname>.sharepoint.com/Sites/<sitename>
For the first set of sites, about 80% of our sites have been updated so that we can create the new Modern Team Sites. None of these have been Groupified.
Anyone know the ETA for converting the old team sites to the new Modern Team Site experience?
Anyne know if Microsoft plans to allow the new Group + Team Site experience to have nested subsites?
It's already possible to create subwebs in team sites associated with O365 groups! Give it a try!

I've been tring to create secondary libraries and the navigation is not consitant. Its a complete show stop issue for our work so we have to give up on Office 365 Groups until there is a consitant navigation and branding.

My assumption is that you are trying to do this from the modern team home site, by clicking the New drop-down menu to the right of the team site name (see attached file), and then selecting "Document library."
Is that how you are doing it? Once created, you can then choose to incorporate it within the left-hand navigation of the site; you'd see the name you gave the new library.

- Cyrus ChristianJan 26, 2017Brass ContributorNo, I am doing this from the modern Outlook page and there is no navigation to secondary libraries. It also only shows files in a flat format without groups. The issue we face is that Outlook has a whole different experience than the Office 365 Groups "team" landing page. One of these needs to take precedence IMO
- Bruce WeatherfordJan 26, 2017Brass ContributorI am also frustrated at the lack of consistent navigation given it's so easy to get lost, especially how hard groups are being pushed!
- Mark-KashmanJan 26, 2017Former EmployeeAlways interested in UI/UX deeback. Can you be more specific to the areas where you get lost? Navigating within SharePoint, or from app to app - i.e. shared calendar to group's files?
