Is it possible to change the web address of a document library in Sharepoint?

Question

Answer 1

Hi @Technician123
Yes, we could change the url using SharePoint Designer: Open site > All files > select the document library and rename it

As a result, the url has been changed from https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/luyitest1311/doc/Forms/AllItems.aspx to https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/luyitest1311/doc111/Forms/AllItems.aspx

You could also change the library url using pnp (This code change the url from "https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/luyitest1311/doc222" to "https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/luyitest1311/doc333"

#Set Parameters  
$SiteURL = "https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/luyitest1311/"  
$ListName = "doc222"  
$NewListURL = "doc333"  
    
#Connect to PnP Online  
Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteURL   
   
#Get the List  
$List= Get-PnPList -Identity $ListName -Includes RootFolder  
   
#sharepoint online powershell change list url  
$List.Rootfolder.MoveTo($NewListURL)  
Invoke-PnPQuery

We ended up going with creating a new site and copying over all the contents. I don't believe the admins on our end use Sharepoint Designer or the PNP method. If this does come up again will run through that to test.

Thank you!
