Copy or Move Site Page from one site to another
Hello, I've been searching to see if this is possible but it appears with the modern experience, you can only copy a site page to the same Site Pages library in the same site. If I switch my view to...

That is another approach yes and it does the job. The idea of this extension is to allow a worries free about having to change/adapt the code for different tenants, pages, sites,webs.
