Requirement: Create List from Custom List Template using PowerShell in SharePoint Online.

List templates in SharePoint Online save a lot of time by reusing any existing list or library, which comprises all columns and optionally the data from the list. You can create any number of copies from the list template.

Assuming you have an existing list template on the site, Here is how to create a list from a template SharePoint Online:

• Login to your SharePoint Online site >> Click on the Settings gear icon and click “Add an app”
• You can use the pagination to find your list template or use the “Find an App” search box and pick your list template.
• Provide a name to your new list and click on “OK”. This creates a new list from the template in SharePoint Online.
• You will see a new list created with the same list schema, and also data if you have selected “Include Content” when creating the list template originally. Let’s see the SharePoint Online PowerShell to create a list from the template.

Lists are the primary building blocks SharePoint uses to store information. Let’s use PowerShell in SharePoint Online to create a list from a custom template.

#Load SharePoint Online Assemblies Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\16\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll" Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\16\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll" #Config Variables $SiteURL="//crescent.sharepoint.com" $ListTemplateName = "Quick Links Template" $ListName="Quick Links V2" #Get Credentials to connect $Cred= Get-Credential $Credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials[$Cred.Username, $Cred.Password] #Setup the context $Ctx = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext[$SiteURL] $Ctx.Credentials = $Credentials #Get All Lists $Lists = $Ctx.Web.Lists $Ctx.Load[$Lists] $Ctx.ExecuteQuery[] #Get the Custom list template $ListTemplates=$Ctx.site.GetCustomListTemplates[$Ctx.site.RootWeb] $Ctx.Load[$ListTemplates] $Ctx.ExecuteQuery[] #Filter Specific List Template $ListTemplate = $ListTemplates | where { $_.Name -eq $ListTemplateName } If[$ListTemplate -ne $Null] { #Check if the given List exists $List = $Lists | where {$_.Title -eq $ListName} If[$List -eq $Null] { #Create new list from custom list template $ListCreation = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListCreationInformation $ListCreation.Title = $ListName $ListCreation.ListTemplate = $ListTemplate $List = $Lists.Add[$ListCreation] $Ctx.ExecuteQuery[] Write-host -f Green "List Created from Custom List Template Successfully!" } else { Write-host -f Yellow "List '$[$ListName]' Already Exists!" } } else { Write-host -f Yellow "List Template '$[$ListTemplateName]' Not Found!" }

The same method applies for creating a document library from a custom template.

Lists are the primary building blocks to store information in SharePoint. Here is the PnP PowerShell to create a list from the template:

#Config Variables $SiteURL = "//crescent.sharepoint.com/sites/marketing" $ListName = "Migation Tasks" $ListTemplateName ="Project Tasks" #Connect to PnP Online Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteURL -Credentials [Get-Credential] #Get the Custom List Template $Ctx = Get-PnPContext $Web = $Ctx.Site.RootWeb $ListTemplates = $Ctx.Site.GetCustomListTemplates[$Web] $Ctx.Load[$Web] $Ctx.Load[$ListTemplates] Invoke-PnPQuery $ListTemplate = $ListTemplates | where {$_.Name -eq $ListTemplateName} #sharepoint online powershell create list from template $ListCreation = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListCreationInformation $ListCreation.Title = $ListName $ListCreation.ListTemplate = $ListTemplate $Web.Lists.Add[$ListCreation] Invoke-PnPQuery
