What the product does

The right tools to reuse SharePoint solutions.

A guided interface that brings together operations often handled through specialized technical procedures and custom scripts.

Selective capture

Sites, subsites, lists and document libraries: select structure and, in supported scenarios, content.

Structures and dependencies

Field, Content Type, lookup and Taxonomy handling, with dependency analysis and explicit unresolved cases.

Portable .gdgspt packages

Save templates as portable files containing manifests, metadata and integrity checks.

Guided provisioning

Create new sites, lists and libraries in the target tenant from packages or directly from SOURCE.

Preflight checks

Check prerequisites, compatibility and dependencies before execution to reduce unexpected results.

Logs and progress

Track operations through progress reporting, execution events and diagnostic messages.

Clear expectations

Easy to operate. Transparent about Microsoft prerequisites.

The guided capture and provisioning workflow does not require writing custom PowerShell scripts. Appropriate Microsoft 365 access rights and permissions remain necessary.

  • Windows desktop application for SharePoint Online (SOURCE and TARGET).
  • Microsoft Entra ID application registration and configuration are required for authentication.
  • SOURCE/TARGET connection profiles and authorized identity access to SharePoint sites.
  • Support for advanced scenarios, with limitations and dependencies surfaced during preflight checks.

Frequently asked questions

Know what to expect.

Do I need PowerShell to use GDG.SP.TemplateManager?

No. Guided capture and provisioning do not require authoring PowerShell scripts. Initial Microsoft 365 setup may still require administrative configuration.

Do I need to register a Microsoft Entra ID application?

Yes. Entra ID application registration and suitable API permissions are prerequisites for SharePoint Online access.

Can I include document library content?

Yes. Supported scenarios allow structure and optional content to be captured and provisioned. Result fidelity depends on the source site characteristics and dependencies.

Which editions are available for purchase today?

Professional is the only edition currently available. Consultant, Enterprise and ISV/OEM are not part of the current offering.

What happens when GDG Update Assurance expires?

The perpetual license remains valid and you may continue using versions you have already acquired. Later releases require active Update Assurance or an upgrade program.

Can I reassign a Professional tenant license?

Not without approval. Each named tenant entitlement is bound to a Tenant ID. Reassignment must be requested and authorized by GDG.

Your SharePoint environment is already a starting point.
