Question:

  1. Is it possible to create Site templates with different apps in SharePoint Online and use is for different projects as they come up?

We have a scenario where we need template for projects that has a document library, a resource list, a task list and an image library. I created a page template with all the elements listed above. Although I tested it by creating different project pages by selecting the template and naming it differently for each test project, however it all points to the same apps (library, list etc.). it there a way to create template that does not do this?

Also is there a way to create unique permissions at page level? It seems all the permission is at the parent site level. I tired changing the permission at the page level ,however it screws up the parent site permission. It this is not possible is there a way to create Site templates in SharePoint Online?

thanks you for your feeback!

    Hi @Ajay Mandal , welcome to Q&A forum!

    Are you using classic experience or modern experience? If you are using classic experience, you could try to save site/list as a template, please refer to:
    Save, download, and upload a SharePoint site as a template

    However the functionality of saving a site as a template described in this article is only supported in SharePoint Server 2013, SharePoint Server 2016, SharePoint Server 2019 (classic sites only), and SharePoint Online (classic sites only).

    It is not supported in SharePoint Online (modern sites) or SharePoint Server 2019 (modern sites).

    ===============================================
    And per my knowledge, if you are using a modern page, you could go to Site Content> Site Pages library. Then set the permissions on a page level the same way you would set permissions on a document, folder or site.

    i.e Click on the ellipses next to the page name and Share it with only one person.
