Get-PnPSiteTemplate: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

[mario-fliegner]

Hi all,

suddenly, I'm not able to use some PnP commands anymore. Especially to get the site template in and out. The error is:
Get-PnPSiteTemplate: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

I'm running the latest version of PowerShell and a current version of PnP. I've tried also different sites (existing and new created) with the same behaviour. Unfortunately, I only have this one tenant available. It stopped working from one day to the next.

Does anyone know this? I don't have any clue but can imagine, that the cause might be also on SharePoint side?

Here are my commands, and below the output in the logfile.

Can you access the same site in browser?
What permissions do you have?
Does any cmdlet work with the connection? like Get-PnPSite or Web?
Try and set tracelog to Information for more info
If you log in to admin and use Get-PnPTenantSite -Identity can you then see the site?
