Office 365 - SharePoint - Hidden or Secret URLs

Microsoft hides many URLs that can be valuable to any SharePoint or M365 administrator.  However note as always that you should test all the following links in your test or dev environment.  So here is a list of very informative URLs "hidden" in SharePoint.  Just substitute your site collection URL for http://intranet.contoso.com, http://siteurl, or http://yourservername/sites/yoursite/

https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-and-use-site-templates-60371b0f-00e0-4c49-a844-34759ebdd989

“Just to be clear. Using save-site-as-a-template with modern team sites or publishing sites is NOT supported. You can always find ways with tenant admin permissions to achieve things, but the fact that it's doable does not mean it's supported.
  
Any sites created with the template which has been produced with this method can have unexpected issues in the future, so provided steps should never be used.”

Vesa Juvonen, Senior Program Manager, SharePoint Engineering, Microsoft.
