How can I rename a library in SharePoint?

Question

Due to some testing with a failing copy flow, I have discovered that I need to rename a few libraries to get the flow to work properly with the requirements my clients have settled on. Is it possible to rename a library? I also need to edit the Web Address in List Information.&nbsp;

Yes, just go to Site Contents, click the 3 dots next to library, select Settings then select List name, description and navigation and change the name.

Thanks Rob, I was just about to edit this - I actually need to change the Web Address in List Information.

robelliott · Answer

As so often happens with SharePoint, the internal name remains the same and you can't change that.

Oh no - not even with PowerShell or some other code magic?
