Description
Hello
I'm trying to modernise SharePoint 2013 pages into SharePoint Online.
I'm using PnP.PowerShell 1.12.0 and PowerShell 7.3.0, though I have experienced errors with earlier versions of both.
I'm running the following commands:
$target = Connect-PnPOnline "https://TENANT.sharepoint.com/sites/modernblog" -ReturnConnection
$source = Connect-PnPOnline "http://INTRANET/sites/Publishing" -TransformationOnPrem -ReturnConnection -CurrentCredentials
ConvertTo-PnPPage -Identity "Welcome.aspx" -PublishingPage -TargetWebUrl $target -Connection $source
ConvertTo-PnPPage -identity "Blog Post" -BlogPage -TargetWebUrl $target -Connection $source
Everything appears to connect as expected, I can see the connection to the SP13 environment, but then it fails with the following error:
ConvertTo-PnPPage: Method "GetList" does not exist.
Output from Get-PnPException:
Message : Method "GetList" does not exist.
Stacktrace : at PnP.PowerShell.Commands.Base.PnPConnectedCmdlet.ProcessRecord() in c:\build\src\Commands\Base\PnPConnectedCmdlet.cs:line 79
at PnP.PowerShell.Commands.PnPSharePointCmdlet.ProcessRecord() in c:\build\src\Commands\Base\PnPSharePointCmdlet.cs:line 121
at System.Management.Automation.CommandProcessor.ProcessRecord()
I've completely removed all PnP.PowerShell instances and reinstalled but it's still the same each time.
Any help appreciated.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure with the two Connect-PnPOnline commands and ConvertTo-PnPPage examples in the issue. Start at PnPConnectedCmdlet.cs line 79 and trace the reported missing GetList method; done means determining and addressing why the page conversion fails against the SharePoint 2013 source, with the supplied commands no longer producing that error.
