PnP PowerShell Apply-ProvisioningTemplate error : Sequence contains more than one matching element
Can someone look at the template and advise why I'm getting this strange message.
The template was created using the Get-SPOProvisioningTemplate powershell command, the error I get is during the execution of Apply-SPOProvisioningTemplate.
I got this message on the original template and after stripping out more than half of it, I'm still getting the error.
I'm attaching the verbose logging (apply_result.txt) and the original template and the stripped down template
(I just renamed the pnp files for easier identification, the original name was "template2.pnp")
Appreciate any insights!
Thank you,
Jan
Jan Vorster, I can't see any attachments.
I'm assuming that you use Set-SPOTraceLog. Could you copy the last 10 lines or so in this post.

Apologies - it seems like the selected files don't get attached when I click "Post"... I'll zip them together.
Herewith the output of the Apply-SPOProvisioningTemplate command:
