Objectifs :
This tutorial aims to guide Office 365 global admins and SharePoint admins through the process of creating site collections in SharePoint Online, ensuring they understand the necessary steps and settings involved.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction
In this tutorial, we will explore how Office 365 global admins and SharePoint admins can create site collections in SharePoint Online. This process is essential for managing organizational content and collaboration effectively. -
Signing into Office 365
To begin, sign into your Office 365 account as a global admin or SharePoint admin. Once logged in, locate the app launcher icon in the upper left corner of the screen. -
Accessing the Admin Center
From the app launcher, select 'Admin' to open the Office 365 Admin Center. If you do not see it listed, click on 'All apps' to find it. In the left panel, look for the 'Resources' option and select 'Sites'. If 'Sites' is not visible, click on 'Show all' to reveal it and pin it for easier access. -
Creating a Site Collection
To create a new site collection, click on 'Add a site'. If this option is not available, you can alternatively navigate through the SharePoint Admin Center by selecting 'SharePoint' and then 'New' followed by 'Private Site Collection'. -
Choosing Site Type
Before proceeding, the system will prompt you to choose between a team site or a communication site. For this tutorial, we will select a team site, as it is more versatile for collaboration. -
Setting Site Properties
Fill in the properties for the new site collection. Enter a name in the title box and verify the group email address. You can also check and modify the URL if necessary. Additionally, select the group owner, who will be the site admin, and choose the primary language for the site collection. Be cautious when selecting the language, as it cannot be changed later. -
Advanced Settings
In the advanced settings, ensure that the privacy settings align with your requirements and that the timezone is appropriate for your target audience. For instance, if creating a site for the European market, selecting Brussels time would be ideal. You may also add a site description if desired. -
Finalizing Site Creation
Once you have reviewed all settings and are satisfied, click 'Next'. You can add additional owners or members at this stage, but this can also be done later. Click 'Finish' to complete the process. -
Post-Creation Notes
After clicking 'OK', the new site collection will begin to create. Note that it may take up to 15 minutes for the collection to become accessible. The URL for the site collection will be available for the administrator to start managing their sites. -
Conclusion
In summary, this tutorial has outlined the steps for creating site collections in SharePoint Online. Understanding these processes is crucial for effective site management and collaboration within your organization.
