If your organization has hundreds or thousands of SharePoint sites, keeping them organized can be difficult.
Microsoft is introducing a new Catalog Management capability in SharePoint Advanced Management that lets admins group sites in a way that matches their organization. With this update, admins can:
↪ Create site groups in bulk using a CSV file.
↪ Group sites based on SharePoint site properties.
↪ Control who can see certain categories using Microsoft Entra ID extension attributes.
This makes governance, reporting, and administration much easier, especially in large environments.
Microsoft also says these catalog groups will support future capabilities, including:
• Better governance across groups of sites.
• Department-based storage reporting and billing for pay-as-you-go scenarios.
