DESCRIPTION

Use the Import-M365Sites cmdlet to import sites into a Microsoft 365 tenant.

See the Notes section for cmdlet requirements.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Validation only

Import-M365Sites -ConfigNode Target -Csv 'sites.csv' -ValidateOnly

This example validates all data for the sites in the sites.csv file but does not perform the operation. This is a recommended first step so any warnings can be addressed first.

Example 2: Basic import

Import-M365Sites -ConfigNode Target -Csv 'sites.csv'

This example imports all sites from the sites.csv file.

Example 3: Advanced import with translation

Import-M365Sites -ConfigNode Target -Csv 'sites.csv' -TranslationCsv 'translations.csv'

This example imports all sites from the sites.csv file. Data is translated according to the mappings provided in the translations.csv file.

PARAMETERS

-ConfigNode

The config.psd1 configuration node to use.

Type: String
Parameter Sets: Action
Aliases:
Accepted values: Source, Target

Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-Csv

The path to a CSV file containing objects to import. See the Notes section for the required format.

Type: String
Parameter Sets: Action
Aliases:

Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-IgnoreErrors

Validation errors stop execution prior to the import by default. Use -IgnoreErrors to proceed with error records omitted.

Note that global errors are not impacted by this option.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: Action
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-ShowPrereqs

Prints the cmdlet prerequisites.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: Help
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-SkipValidation

Skips the property validation stage of the import. Data supplied via the -Csv parameter will be used as-is, which may lead to runtime errors.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: Action
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-TranslationCsv

The path to the CSV file containing translation mappings. The file must use SourceName;TargetName as the field identifiers.

Type: String
Parameter Sets: Action
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-ValidateOnly

Validation and import are both performed by default. Use -ValidateOnly to perform the validation but skip the import.

It is recommended to run a -ValidateOnly pass first to identify potential issues prior to importing data. Note that records with validation errors will fail to import unless -IgnoreErrors is used, but records with validation warnings proceed without the data triggering the warning. A -ValidateOnly pass allows you to inspect these warnings before data is written and make any necessary changes.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: Action
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
