[BUG] Sublinks not provisioned in Footer

[b00johst]

Environment

[ X ] Office 365 / SharePoint Online
[ ] SharePoint 2016
[ ] SharePoint 2013

Expected or Desired Behavior

If an extracted PnP provisioning template includes multiple level of navigation nodes (nested nodes and subnodes) in the footer all levels should be provisioned when the template is applied.

Observed Behavior

If I extract a pnp provisioning template from a site with two levels of navigations in the footer and later apply it to another site only the first level of navigation nodes is created on the target site. The subnodes are excluded.

  <pnp:Footer Enabled="true" Logo="{hosturl}/sites/Bildbank/Grafisk profil/Regular White-256x64.png" RemoveExistingNodes="false">
    <pnp:FooterLinks>
      <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Generic header 1" Url="http://linkless.header/">
        <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Tillgänglihetsredogörelse" Url="https://someurl.se/tillganglighetsredogorelse?l=sv" /> <!-- not provisioned -->
      </pnp:FooterLink>
      <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Generic header 2" Url="http://linkless.header/">
        <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="SE-581 83 Linköping" Url="http://linkless.header/" /> <!-- not provisioned -->
        <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="infocenter@liu.se" Url="mailto:someadress@xxxx.se" /> <!-- not provisioned -->
        <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="xxx-xx xx xx" Url="http://linkless.header/" /> <!-- not provisioned -->
      </pnp:FooterLink>
      <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Generic header 3" Url="http://linkless.header/">
        <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Registrera ett ärende" Url="http://someurl.se/" /> <!-- not provisioned -->
        <pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="xxx-xx xx xx" Url="http://linkless.header/" /> <!-- not provisioned -->
      </pnp:FooterLink>
    </pnp:FooterLinks>
  </pnp:Footer>

Steps to Reproduce

1.) Create a communication site
2.) Enable extended footer and create a two level navigation structure.
3.) Extract a provisioning template using the SiteFooter handler.
4.) Create a blank target communication site.
5.) Enable extended footer on the new target communcation site.
6.) Apply the template to the new target.
