Site Properties

There are numerous properties that you can define on site level. In this chapter you see examples on how to apply those site properties.

  1. Connect your site collection to a hubsite

    If you would like to associate a hubsite to your (new) SharePoint site collection, you need to add the entity “HubSiteUrl” to the “Site” tag. The value of the entity “HubSiteUrl” would be the address of the HubSite. It would look something like this in your Make template:

    1

    <Site Url="{​​​​​​url}​​​​​​" Title="{​​​​​​​​​​​​​title}​​​​​​​​​​​​​" OwnerLogin="{​​​​​​​​​​​​​siteowner}​​​​​​​​​​​​​" Template="STS#3" LCID="1033" StorageQuota="1024" TimeZoneId="4" HubSiteUrl="https://wmeurer.sharepoint.com/sites/hub">

    An example of a template can be found here. Of course you need to change the value of the hubsite to your own hubsite.

  2. Promote site as hubsite

    It is possible to promote a site collection as hubsite via PowerShell. This can also be done via provisioning. In your Make template you need to add the property “IsHubSite” to the “Site” entity. It will look like this:

    1

    <Site Url="{​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​url}​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​" Title="{​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​title}​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​" OwnerLogin="{​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​siteowner}​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​" Template="STS#3" LCID="1033" StorageQuota="1024" TimeZoneId="4" IsHubSite="True">
