I have SharePoint 2013 list with 13897 items in it, I saved it as a template with include contents.
Now I am trying to create a new list but it doesn't load all items.
and if I open this newly created list, there is an error something like this:

Because there are lots of files and probably the template file is really large, the creation from this template probably timed out and won't be created properly.
I recommend to use Export-SPWeb and ImportSPWeb, where you can simply export and import whole library
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-server/export-spweb?view=sharepoint-ps https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-server/import-spweb?view=sharepoint-ps
or http://prabathf.blogspot.com/2012/02/export-and-import-sharepoint-list.html
Export-SPWeb -Identity <SiteURL> -Path <FileName.cmp> -ItemUrl <URLList> -IncludeUserSecurity -IncludeVersions
Import-SPweb -Identity <SiteUrl> -Path <FileName.cmp>

Agreed. There are most likely too many items for the template to finish. Powershell is oging to be your best bet if you need all of the content as well– lazoDevJan 14, 2019 at 15:06

No you need both, Export this List with first where ItemUrl is /lists/ListName and after this Import this web to web you want it Jan 15, 2019 at 13:10
