Hybrid self-service site creation
APPLIES TO: 
2013 2016 2019 Subscription Edition SharePoint in Microsoft 365
Hybrid self-service site creation redirects the default self-service site creation page in SharePoint Server (/_layouts/15/scsignup.aspx) or (/_layouts/16/scsignup.aspx) to the SharePoint in Microsoft 365 Group Creation page. By configuring this feature, you can help your users to create their sites in SharePoint in Microsoft 365 instead of SharePoint Server.
Hybrid self-service site creation respects your hybrid audience settings. If you use a hybrid audience, members of the hybrid audience will be redirected to SharePoint in Microsoft 365 for self-service site creation, while on-premises only users will continue to be directed to self-service site creation in SharePoint Server.
This setting can be configured independently for each web application in your farm.
Hybrid self-service site creation is available in SharePoint Server 2013 with the March 2017 PU.
Hybrid self-service site creation is available in SharePoint 2016 with November 2017 PU.
Configure hybrid self-service site creation using the Hybrid Configuration Wizard
Configuring hybrid self-service site creation is done by using the Hybrid Configuration Wizard in the SharePoint admin center.
Note
If you've previously configured other hybrid features with the Hybrid Configuration Wizard, you can go directly to the SharePoint Central Administration website to manage hybrid self-service site creation. In this case, the hybrid connection has been made and there's no need to run the Hybrid Configuration Wizard again.
