[BUG] Wiki Page Internal Links Missing "SitePages"

Problem Area

[x] Page Transformation: Error during the use of page transformation from PnP PowerShell [ ] Page Transformation: Error during the use of page transformation from .Net [ ] Page Transformation: Page is not looking correct after transformation [ ] Modernization Scanner: something went wrong…

Expected or Desired Behavior

I’m converting a Wiki library in SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint Online. Because I’m converting from SP2010, I’m using SharePointPnPPowerShell v 3.29.2101.0, which as I understand it is the last version which works with SP2010. The files convert beautifully, though they are placed into a folder in the Site Pages library, as mentioned in pnp/pnpframework#626. The pages also aren’t published in the destination.

Observed Behavior

The bug is with the links inside the pages. They aren’t fixed up properly. The pages end up in a folder called Wiki, as that is the name of the source Wiki library.

• Home.aspx is copied to: https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/sites/apps_CCR/SitePages/Wiki/Home.aspx
• CCR Regional Expert List.aspx is copied to: https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/sites/apps_CCR/SitePages/Wiki/CCR%20Regional%20Expert%20List.aspx
• etc.

So, the pages land in appropriate locations. But the lniks insode the pages are missing the SitePages part of the URLs:

• Within CCR Regional Expert List.aspx , the link to Home.aspx is: https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/sites/apps_CCR/Wiki/Home.aspx
• Within Home.aspx, the link to CCR Regional Expert List.aspx is: https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/sites/apps_CCR/Wiki/CCR%20Regional%20Expert%20List.aspx
• etc.

Steps to Reproduce

My PowerShell looks something like below. I’ve tried every combination of the property settings (-Target*) I can think of to remedy this. I’ve also had @ToddKlindt take a look to make sure I’m not doing something dumb. Am I holding it wrong?

Import-Module -Name SharePointPnPPowerShellOnline

$sourceSiteUrl = "sourceSiteUrl"
$targetSiteUrl = "targetSiteUrl"
$sourceLibrary = "Wiki"

$sourceConnection = Connect-PnPOnline -Url $sourceSiteUrl -ReturnConnection -Credential (Get-StoredCredential -Target "Marc")
$targetConnection = Connect-PnPOnline -Url $targetSiteUrl -ReturnConnection -UseWebLogin

$wikiPages = Get-PnPListItem -Connection $sourceConnection -List $sourceLibrary -PageSize 500

$filteredWikiPages = $wikiPages | Select-Object -First 5

foreach ($page in $filteredWikiPages) {

    $targetPageName = $page.FieldValues.FileLeafRef

    Write-Host "Writing page <$($page.FieldValues.FileLeafRef)> to <$($targetPageName)>"

    ConvertTo-PnPClientSidePage `
        -Connection $sourceConnection `
        -Library $sourceLibrary `
        -Identity $page.FieldValues["ID"] `
        -Overwrite `
        -CopyPageMetadata `
        -TargetConnection $targetConnection `
        -TargetPageName $targetPageName `
        -LogType File -LogFolder .

}

p.s. Convert-WikiAndWebPartPages.ps1 doesn’t seem to be all that tuned for Wiki pages. Most Wikis in older on premises versions are going to be in a separate library from SitePages.

FYI - I decided to migrate the Wiki into SPO with ShareGate. Now I can run the page transformation on it with up-to-date PnP.PowerShell. I think this approach will work.

Yeah, I know I’m in oldster land. I have to be for SP2010, right?

I have played with those in every combination I can think of. I can make the pages land in a different folder in SitePages, but I can’t seem to have any effect on the internal URLs.
