Add a link to a list in a document library via Site Script / Site Design
How do I add a link to a list in a document library via a site script to be a part of a Template / Site Design? In a document library you can select New -> Link and create a link to show up in the document library. Can I programmatically do this within a site script?

Hi!
You just add this part to the json:
{ "verb": "addNavLink", "url": "/Lists/Project Activities", "displayName": "Project Activities", "navComponent":"Hub", (Change this to Quicklaunch if you want it on left or top navigation) "isWebRelative": true }As per my understanding, OP is asking to add new link (page) inside the document library like:
However, the code snippet you suggested will add the link in SharePoint site navigation.
MeganSP, I don't think there is any direct verb/action available for your requirements. Maybe you can do it using the <DataRows> element available in PnP Provisioning schema. However I have not tried it yet so cannot confirm this.
You can check this Microsoft official documentation and see if there is any relevant actions available for your requirements: SharePoint Site template JSON schema

- Yes you are correct! I totally missed the document library part...
