Do you know how many classic SharePoint pages are sitting in your tenant right now? Most organizations can't say.
And Microsoft has set the dates:
- March 1, 2027 ends classic publishing site creation.
On the surface, nothing demands action right now: nothing gets deleted, and people can still open those pages. The problem is the content that keeps changing, like the HR policy, the operating procedure, or the portal homepage someone updates every quarter. Those pages freeze, and read-only is fine for an archive, not for living content.
Carlos Silva, BindTuning's CTO and Microsoft MVP, shows how to find out what you have before you plan anything, with a live demo building the inventory in Pulse365.
What you'll learn
- What each date switches off, and what it leaves alone
- The five signals that turn a guess into a dated inventory
- Where Microsoft's free tooling helps, and what it takes to run
- How to decide what moves first, and what can wait
Whether your tenant holds a handful of leftover wiki pages or a publishing portal running since 2016, you'll leave with a method for finding out what you have and how to deal with it before classic pages retire.
