Thanks for the suggestion @Laul0. In the CLI we use a naming convention, where get is reserved for retrieving a single instance of an object. If you want to get multiple objects, then you should list list as a verb instead. See others specs, like https://github.com/pnp/office365-cli/issues/268 (spo list item list) and https://github.com/pnp/office365-cli/issues/269 (spo list item get)

Hi, sorry I didn't take notice on that 🙏
In accordance with this guidance, that is not confusing if the command for retrieve multiple list view look like spo list view list ?

If you think that's ok, no problem 😉 I'll update this issue

[waldekmastykarz]

No problem. It's your first time here, so happy to show you around 🙂

Yes, to list the available views, having a command named spo list view list would be matching the existing naming convention. Let's create a separate issue for it so that we can track it.

Hey @waldekmastykarz, feel free to assign that to me.

[waldekmastykarz]

Perfect! All yours @VelinGeorgiev!

@Laul0, @waldekmastykarz, how about getting the list by url as well? It seems that the pnp powershell does it https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-pnp/get-pnpview?view=sharepoint-ps.

In that case we will have to add additional option so:
--listId / --listTitle / --listUrl (One of the following options is enough)

[Laul0]

With PnP Powershell you can get list by URL or ID only. With CLI you can get list by ID or Title.

I think it is more revenant to use internal name or url (without talk about ID) because that not change. But, because several cmdlet of CLI use title/id, all cmdlets should be update to keep coherent no ?

[waldekmastykarz]

@VelinGeorgiev good suggestion and I agree with @Laul0 that we should aim for consistency. So I'd be up for introducing all three options here, and then we could have separate issues for extending each relevant command with support for list URL.

[VelinGeorgiev]

Ok, I will implement it with the three options. Then we replicate.
