Is there a way to restrict the creation of new communication sites on SharePoint online to individual users / groups?

I checked various settings in the SharePoint Admin Center and only came across the general restriction on creating new pages. See instructions from Microsoft Learn (https://learn.microsoft.com/de-DE/sharepoint/let-users-create-modern-site-pages?WT.mc_id=365AdminCSH_spo ). Is there a way to restrict the creation of communication pages? If someone knows a solution for this issue, please let me know.

    Hi @Sarah Kathriner,

    I'm afraid it is impossible to restrict site creation to specific users/groups. With the new admin center, you can only turn off "site creation" for all or none.

    I would suggest you raise a thread in this feedback portal: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/forum/06735c62-321c-ec11-b6e7-0022481f8472. Our product team actively monitors threads there and will take your idea into consideration for future development.
