SiteProperties.NewUrl not working

Has anyone had any luck changing the SiteCollection url in SharePoint Online using CSOM?   https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/microsoft.online.sharepoint.tenantadministration.siteprope...

    how do you build the context with creds etc?

    a example of mine

     SharePointService sharePointService = new SharePointService();
            AuthenticationManager authenticationManager = new AuthenticationManager();
            using (
                ClientContext adminContext =
                    authenticationManager.GetSharePointOnlineAuthenticatedContextTenant(Info.TenantAdminUri.AbsoluteUri, Info.UserName,
                        Info.UserPassWord))
            {
                adminContext.RequestTimeout = Timeout.Infinite;
             
            }

    hope it helps

      I've tried both AppOnly context with full SiteCollection permissions and SharePointOnlineContext.

      Neither works. 

      I can however create/delete sitecollections and change other properties, but NewUrl doesn't work. So I believe my context is ok.

       

      Deleted you're saying that it works for you? My ServerLibraryVersion is 16.0.6511.1201.

        Hi I am just checking your code.

        What are you trying to accomplish?

         

        Since i see you get the url then want to update the url??

        That will not work.
