In classic SharePoint you could save a list as a template, download it, and then upload it to a new SharePoint. I need to move a list (and it's contents) to a different SharePoint, how does one do that in Modern Online SharePoint?

@smithme one easy way to do it is with a flow in Power Automate.

@smithme there is no specific action to copy a list, you need to have created the list you want to copy to, then in the flow use Get items -> Apply to each -> Create item so the flow will loop through the current list and for each item it will create an item in the new list:

@smithme when you create a new list you can choose to create it from an existing list which copies the structure though not the items.

So that makes sense in terms of the steps in PowerAutomate, but pretty ridiculous that you can't export and import content?
