Environment

[ X ] Office 365 / SharePoint Online [ ] SharePoint 2016 [ ] SharePoint 2013

If SharePoint on-premises, what's exact CU version:

Expected or Desired Behavior

My soot site template includes the following:

< pnp:NavigationNode Title="Clients" Url="{site}/clients" />

When Applying the template to a new root site the Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate should report a warning but not fail.

Observed Behavior

Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate : Cannot open "/clients": no such file or folder. At line:1 char:1

Steps to Reproduce

Apply template with the above node included while the clients site doesn't exist.

It's weird the API is throwing this error...requires further testing and investigation.

jansenbe commented 7 years ago

We managed to reproduce this internally, flagging as bug.

internal testing comments: Followed the steps as mentioned by the user Got below when provisioned. Cannot open "/sites/PnP_985P_Target/Clients": no such file or folder.

Note: In UI, if we add non-existing site Url then link is adding to navigation without any error.

Hi @jansenbe, is there any update on this topic? We are facing this issue in a SharePoint 2013 environment. We try to add a link to a friendly url and are receiving an error.

Hi,

I'm having the same issue, if the subiste does not exists this throws an error. "no such file or folder." pnp:NavigationNode Url = {SiteCollection}/subsite

Has this been fixed? Thanks
