Sharepoint online manifest file export

Question

Is there a way to export the Online site (SharePoint Online) like one done in Onpermises using a power shell script "Export-SpWeb " http://AAAAA:28769/sites/TargetSite " -ItemUrl "/sites/TargetSite/GA folder" -NoFileCompression -Path "E:\\Temp" "

which export all the xmls for the particular site ?

Or is there any alternative to view those xmls including manifest.xml using any tools or something like that ??

Answer 1

Use the OfficeDevPnP.PowerShell commands from the PnP provisioning framework to extract and reuse site templates for SharePoint Online and Office 365.

Here is a starting summary description on MSDN of the PnP remote provisioning resources on GitHub.

Example:

Connect-SPOnline [mySourceUrl]
Get-SPOProvisioningTemplate -Out demo.xml
Connect-SPOnline [myDestinationUrl]
Apply-SPOProvisioningTemplate -Path .\demo.xml
