Remote Provisioning Schema

by Microsoft 365 Patterns and Practices (PnP)

This is the Community Source Code location for the PnP remote provisioning schema designed to be used as remote creation instructions for remote provisioning engine towards Microsoft 365.

This is community driven effort for designing one schema which can be used to define elements in the Microsoft 365. Initial versions will concentrate on SharePoint, but target is to define also other services using this same structure.

This effort is closely related on the work being done in the Microsoft 365 Patterns and Practices PnP Framework Library repository on actual engine, which will provision SharePoint sites and other elements using this schema.
