Hi!
I'm trying to create a new Communication Site in my tenant.
I see option for create this site, I compiled fields and it says is ok to proceed.
But, when I click on finish, browser sent message to exit or remain in page and in every case, it broke page with "Unable to reach https://_layouts page"
I searched for call in F12 and found this:
POST to https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/_api/sitepages/publishingsite/create
ERROR :
code > -2147024891, System.UnauthorizedAccessException
message >Access Denied, etc etc
My account is tenant administrator.
I've checked licence and it's all ok.
Tryed with all browser (edge, ie11, chrome).
Any Ideas?
Thankyouguys!
EDIT: Solution
The problem was access denied on root site collection of tenant..
Mysteriously, even if I navigate without problems to https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/_layouts/sharepoint.aspx, call to https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/_api/sitepages/etc.. was forbidden.
If I navigate to https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/ my account receives access denied.
So, I give Site Collection Administrator rights to my user (with SharePoint Administration) and my new Communication Site is here!
