Reporting an Issue or Missing Feature

Get-PnPSitePolicy doesn't return the policies on recently created sites or if the policy has been created recently even when the Site policy is showing in UI

Expected behavior

When executing Get-PnPSitePolicy -AllAvailable, the list of available policies should match the ones from the SharePoint UI

Actual behavior

If the site has been created recently or the policy has been created recently, the policy is not being returned by Get-PnPSitePolicy

Steps to reproduce behavior

Case 1

1. Create a new Site policy in the https://{tenant}.sharepoint.com/sites/contentTypeHub and publish it
2. Execute PowerShell script from below for a site

Case 2

1. Create a new site
2. Execute PowerShell script from below for this new site (the policy should have been created before)

$SiteUrl = "https://{tenant}.sharepoint.com/sites/{site}"
Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteUrl -Interactive
$AllPolicies = Get-PnPSitePolicy -AllAvailable
Write-Host "Policies: " $AllPolicies
Disconnect-PnPOnline

@kares94 - I've tested both scenarios (new site or new policy on existing site) and have no problem when testing within a couple of minutes. Also try in your script with $AllPolicies.Name

Hi @veronicageek - Thanks for your help! I have tested what you suggested and for some reason Get-PnPSitePolicy doesn't show policies from the ContentTypeHub as you can see in the images below (working with Windows PowerShell ISE).

I have just created a new Site Policy directly on the site and it is displayed by Get-PnPSitePolicy, meanwhile the other Site Policy, which was created on the https://{tenant}.sharepoint.com/sites/contentTypeHub, doesn't show.

Also, both policies work in the Sites Closure and Deletion.

I am having this exact issue also

Any resolution to this? Im having the same issue

We ended up using Set-SPOSite -Identity $SiteURL -LockState "ReadOnly" You will get an annoying banner saying the site is under maintenance

FYI the command Get-PnPSitePolicy is working when you first call Add-PnPContentTypesFromContentTypeHub -ContentTypes [GUID] -Site [SiteURL] cheers

@kares94 - Can you please update to the latest release 2.1.x however you will need PS 7.2 or later to benefit from all the bug fixes and improvements.

PS5 support has been dropped in the new and future releases.

Feel free to reopen if the issue persists. Thanks.
