In this blog I will talk about a simple PnP PowerShell script which adds Child Terms under each term following the same hierarchy in SharePoint Taxonomy / Metadata.
Note that the same script can be used in SharePoint Online, 2013, 2016 or 2019.
You can refer to below hierarchical structure:
Term Group (Region names) –> Term Set (Region) –> Countries –> Customer –>Mine
In this example I want to add a new term called “Mine missing” under each customer, so instead of doing it manually I will use a script to add Mine missing under each Customer for each country.

#Here I have used term guid for Asia Pacific to point to a Term
$ParentTerm = Get-PnPTerm -Identity <<term guid>> -TermSet "Regions" -TermGroup "Region names" -IncludeChildTerms -Recursive
$countryterm = $ParentTerm.Terms
foreach($term in $countryterm)
{
$addterms = $term.Terms
foreach($addedterm in $addterms)
{
$ChildTerm = $addedterm.CreateTerm("Mine Missing", 1033, (New-Guid))
Invoke-PnPQuery
}
}
