Sharepoint list can't rename Column Address:City

Hi AndyPeper ,

This is a little bit tricky.

First you need to get the internal name of the column you want to rename.
In this example I assume that that is the field "Address: City"

1) Open this URL in your browser

https://<yourtenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/<yoursite>/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('<yourlisttitle>')/fields?$select=InternalName&$filter=Title eq 'Address: City'

 You get a short XML Document.

Try to find the "Internal Name" property

....<d:InternalName>City</d:InternalName>....

So in this example the internal name for that field is "City"

2) Go to your list and select "Gear"->"List Settings" and then select any field from the columns section. In this example I choose "Title" (but it does not matter which field you choose)

Now you are editing the "Title" field

Take a look at your URL. It will look like this

https://<yourtentan>.sharepoint.com/sites/<yoursite>/_layouts/15/FldEdit.aspx?List=%7BC48CC4EF-BC51-44BB-BC4C-2FEC1F1EF370%7D&Field=Title

Remove the "Title" at the end and replace it with the internal name of your field (In my example "City").

https://<yourtentan>.sharepoint.com/sites/<yoursite>/_layouts/15/FldEdit.aspx?List=%7BC48CC4EF-BC51-44BB-BC4C-2FEC1F1EF370%7D&Field=City

Now you can rename that column to whatever you like.

Best Regards,
Sven
