Remarks¶
Deleting a site collection is by default asynchronous and depending on the current state of Microsoft 365, might take up to few minutes. If you're building a script with steps that require the site to be fully deleted, you should use the --wait
flag. When using this flag, the spo site remove
command will keep running until it received confirmation from Microsoft 365 that the site has been fully deleted.
If the site which you have selected to remove is groupified (Modern Team Site), flags --fromRecycleBin
, --skipRecycleBin
and --wait
will not be applicable
