Do PnP Site Templates support copying files in document libraries?

[carlgrzywacz]

I created an out of the box document library, added a few files and ran the PowerShell below. The unzipped schema.pnp file does not contain any of the files in the document library. I also receive an error when running the Invoke-PnpSiteTemplate cmdlet.

Error: Invoke-PnPSiteTemplate : Input string was not in a correct format.

Get-PnPSiteTemplate -Out $listSchmaXMLPath -Handlers Lists -ListsToExtract "TestLibrary"
Add-PnPDataRowsToSiteTemplate -Path $listSchmaXMLPath -List 'TestLibrary'
Connect-PnPOnline -Url $destinationSiteURL -Interactive
Invoke-PnPSiteTemplate -Path $listSchmaXMLPath -Handlers Lists

Is this a bug or an unsupported action?

Add-PnPDataRowsToSiteTemplate is, as far as I know, intented to add listitems to the template, not files. This might also explain why you get the error when applying the template to the site.
Add-PnPFileToProvisioningTemplate might do the trick :-)

Please correct spelling from Add-PnPDateRowsToSiteTemplate to Add-PnPDataRowsToSiteTemplate (Date > Data) ;-)
And I assume Add-PnPFileToProvisioningTemplate is now Add-PnPFileToSiteTemplate
And thanks for the answer, it helped me too.

Correct, Add-PnPFileToProvisioningTemplate has be renamed in PnP.PowerShell
