Description
The New-SPOSite cmdlet creates a new site collection for the current company.
However, creating a new SharePoint Online site collection fails if a deleted site with the same URL exists in the Recycle Bin.
You must be at least a SharePoint Online administrator to run the cmdlet.
For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Online, see the online documentation at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=251832.
Examples
