Save site as template missing

[JasonYeung]

Hi,

I've created a SharePoint site and I want to save it as a template, so any future SharePoint sites could use this template to start. From the following link, it mentions how I could save the site as a template:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/general-development/save-download-and-upload-a-shar...

However when I went to the "Site Settings" section, the "Save Site as a Template" link is missing. Under "Site Actions" are only these links:

I did some investigation and the following link mentions a couple of reasons why I may not see these links:

However I don't have publishing features enabled and custom scripts are allowed at the tenant level.

I was wondering if there is another setting(s) that could disable the "Save Site as a Template" link?

Thanks!

Jason

@JasonYeung SharePoint online modern experience sites does not support this save site as template feature.

Check below available options available in SharePoint online. These Microsoft official documentations should help you:

1. Introducing the PnP provisioning engine 
2. Get started creating site templates and site scripts 
3. Apply and customize SharePoint site templates
