I might be misinterpreting the question, but does this help?
"MoveTo" can be used to rename files.
Connect-SPOnline -url [yoururl] $ctx = Get-SPOContext $web = Get-SPOWeb $file = $web.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl("[your file url]") $file.MoveTo("[your NEW server-relative url]", 'Overwrite') $ctx.ExecuteQuery()
I was just surprised that there is not a cmdlet inside the Office Dev PnP library, e.g. Rename-SPOFile($SourceFileName, $DestinationFileName) method, or Move-SPOFile($SourceFileName, $DestinationFileName).
Thanks Deleted and Charles Willwerth for the solutions.
I'm now using the SharePoint Online CSOM based solution of Charles to realize the business requirement.
Well, PnP is an open source project that can always be improved and extended by the community :-). This might be an opportunity to add a cmdlet for this scenario :-)
