M365 Provisioning & Templates

Streamline workspace creation

Manual tickets, duplicate Teams, and unmanaged SharePoint Sites slow everyone down. Orchestry’s provisioning and templates turn workspace creation into guided self-service, so people can spin up the right team or site quickly while IT keeps approvals, ownership, and policies under control.

What types of workspaces can be provisioned with Orchestry?

You can provision Microsoft Teams, SharePoint Team Sites (group-connected and non–group-connected), SharePoint Communication Sites, and Viva Engage Communities.

Does Orchestry support provisioning of classic SharePoint Sites?

No. Orchestry provisions only modern SharePoint Sites, but classic sites are still included in reporting.

Can documents be included with templates?

Yes. As part of Workspace Templates, Orchestry supports all document types, which can be provisioned along with the workspace structure.

Can I provision workspaces using an existing Microsoft Team or SharePoint Site as a template?

Yes, you can connect workspace templates to an existing workspace within your tenant. Orchestry can copy the contents from the SharePoint Site document libraries and lists.

Does Orchestry support naming conventions during provisioning?

Yes. You can restrict access to templates using Entra security groups, allowing you to curate templates for specific departments or teams.

Will users need to learn a new app?

Not necessarily. The Orchestry app gives end users a clean, intuitive experience and gives IT admins confidence that provisioned workspaces meet security and governance requirements, but it is not mandatory to use.
