Communication Site not visible under Admin Portal
Hi,
After creating the new Communication Site, I found out it's listed under admin portal page:
https://[tenant]-admin.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/online/SiteCollections.aspx
Do we have a different listing for that?
cheers,
Shawn
- It's listed or it's not listed? I can confirm I cannot see any communication site I have created in the SPO Admin Center so it seems Communication sites are following the same pattern we now for Modern Team Sites or Office 365 Video Channels: Site Collections are hiddeen in the SPO Admin Center and the way to discover then is by means of PowerShell...something that will change in the future AFAIK

What's the point/benefit of hiding it from SPO Admin Center Site collection list?

I am unable to find some site collections under admin page.
https://[tenant]-admin.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/online/SiteCollections.aspx
I have global admin access even thoung some site collections not able to find.
How i can add myself as a site collection admin which i dont have access?
Thanks & Regards,
Venkatesh Rajan

Hi,
You can achieve this through using PowerShell - check the
Add-PnPSiteCollectionAdmin cmdlet (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-pnp/add-pnpsitecollectionadmin?view=sharepoint-ps)Also I believe the new Central Admin for SharePoint shows Communication sites and other O365 Group-based sites - its currently in beta/early release, and I think the full release is imminent
thanks
