PowerShell PnP "Shared Documents"

[stromnessian]

Hi

The answer to this is probably staring me in the face, and will be trivial to many on this forum I suspect.  I want to create a list using PnP PowerShell, with items based on document libraries and folders in the site.  I have this working, apart from the issue where the Documents document library needs to be "Shared Documents" when I use Get-PnPFolderItem -FolderSiteRelativeUrl.  I don't see a property in the PnpList objects that I can use for this.  I looked at EntityTypeName but it needs to be parsed, or I could grab part of one of the URL properties I guess, but I was looking for a more elegant solution.

TIA

@stromnessian Are you trying to get the name of document library ("Shared Documents") in library URL dynamically? 

Try using Get-PnPList command if it helps you.

To clarify:
Step 1. is to find all document libraries using Get-PnpList.
Step 2. is to, for each of the above, find all top level folders using Get-PnPFolderItem -FolderSiteRelativeUrl.

I initially used the Title property of the lists found in 1., but this doesn't work for "Shared Documents" as the title is "Documents".

@stromnessian You can use this PowerShell: 

$lists = Get-PnPList -Includes RootFolder
$lists.RootFolder.Name

This will give you the correct name of document library.
