I have a subsite in Sharepoint Online with a web address of
https://mydomain/sites/sitecollectionName/subsite
Is it possible to change the url to
https://mydomain/sites/subsite
If I understand correctly it is possible in sharepoint 2013 using powershell Get-SPWeb and setting ServerRelativeUrl but SPO does not appear to have similar powershell commandlets
For SharePoint Online, we can't change the site collection URL, we can change the sub site URL using PowerShell with CSOM. The following PowerShell script for your reference:
#Configure Site URL and User
$SiteURL = "https://mydomain/sites/sitecollectionName/subsite"
$User = "[email protected]"
$Password = "Password"
$newUrl= "/sites/sitecollectionName/mysubsite"
Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\16\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll"
Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\16\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll"
$SecurePassword = $Password | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
$creds = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($User,$SecurePassword)
$context = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($SiteURL)
$context.Credentials = $creds
$web = $context.Web
$context.Load($web)
$context.ExecuteQuery()
$web.ServerRelativeUrl = $newUrl
$web.update()
$context.ExecuteQuery()
