In this blog article, I am going to add and remove custom action using PnP PowerShell.
Adding a custom action to the SharePoint site:
The Add-PnPCustomAction command is used to add a user custom action to a web or site collection.
Example:
This example adds a new custom action to the Site Settings and sets the Title, Name and other fields with the specified values.
- Add-PnPCustomAction -Name ‘Item Search’ -Title ‘Item Search’ -Description ‘Adds custom action to SiteSettings’ -Group ‘SiteAdministration’ -Location ‘Microsoft.SharePoint.SiteSettings’ -Sequence 1000 -Url ‘https://www.google.com’
Output:
Getting the custom action information:
The Get-PnPCustomAction command is used to return user custom action(s) of the web or current site collection.
Example-1:
This example returns all custom actions of the current site.
- Get-PnPCustomAction
Output:
Example-2:
This example returns the custom action with the id “47eaee71-7aa2-458a-8ca8-cbd48f5e68c3”.
- Get-PnPCustomAction -Identity 47eaee71-7aa2-458a-8ca8-cbd48f5e68c3
Removing a custom action from the SharePoint site:
The Remove-PnPCustomAction command is used to remove user custom action(s) from the current web or site collection.
Example:
