Save list as template on modern team site
Wonder if anyone can advise how I can create a list in a modern sharepoint team site from a template that I saved from a classic team site. I don't see any option from within powershell settings.

- Save the list as a template in the source site
- Go to the site "list templates" by going to [your site's URL]_catalogs/lt/Forms/AllItems.aspx
- Upload the template
- Go to Site Contents
- Add > App
- Select your template
Here is an option to get the "List templates" link show in the "Web Designer Galleries" of Site Settings in a modern site, but you can go around that with the URL I gave you.
- Jan 05, 2019You should better use Site Scripts / Site Designs to replicate your list or even PnP. In general, avoid to use the legacy Save as template option
- Pablo DestefanisJan 08, 2019Iron ContributorFine, but sometimes we need to get something done, and the time to learn a library or a whole new framework is just not there!
- Jan 09, 2019Actually learning how to use Site Scripts and Site Design is quite straightforward…with the new way to create a Site Script from a list that is coming to SPO and the new Site Designs Panel you could get all what you need: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/blogs/site-scripts-site-designs-fall-2018-update/
