I am trying to get the default view url of a list in SP hosted app. Below is the code i am trying, on execute success method.

spListobj.get_defaultViewUrl();

It is returning me this error : The property or field 'DefaultViewUrl' has not been initialized. It has not been requested or the request has not been executed. It may need to be explicitly requested.

Then ss, the error suggests i include the DefaultViewUrl property while loading the List object as:

ctx.load(spListobjCollection, 'Include(Title,BaseTemplate,DefaultViewUrl,ItemCount)');

Edit: I am loading the listCollection together and using enumerator to get individual list . But still no luck.

The proper syntax for loading SP.List.defaultViewUrl Property:

context.load(list,'DefaultViewUrl');

Working example

var context = SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var list = context.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle(listTitle);   
context.load(list,'DefaultViewUrl');   
context.executeQueryAsync(
   function(){
      console.log(list.get_defaultViewUrl());    
   }, 
   function(sender,args){
      console.log(args.get_message());    
   }
);

Update

Since DefaultViewUrl property is available for a List object, you have to specify explicitly to load this property:

context.load(list,'DefaultViewUrl'); 

The line:

ctx.load(listItems, 'Include(DefaultViewUrl)');

is incorrect since it tells to load DefaultViewUrl property from ListItem object, which in turn does not contain such a property.

Example 2

var context = SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var list = context.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle(listTitle);   
var items = list.getItems(SP.CamlQuery.createAllItemsQuery());

context.load(items);   
context.load(list,'DefaultViewUrl');  //explicitly specify to load  DefaultViewUrl property of List object
context.executeQueryAsync(
   function(){
      for(var i = 0; i < items.get_count();i++) {
         var item = items.getItemAtIndex(i);
         console.log(item.get_fieldValues());
      }   
      console.log(list.get_defaultViewUrl());    
   }, 
   function(sender,args){
      console.log(args.get_message());    
   }
);
