Looking for a PowerShell Script to "Display this document library on the Quick Launch?"

Question

We are doing bulk network share drive migrations into SharePoint. The SPO Migration tool automatically creates the document library, but does not automatically add it to the Quick Launch.

There does not seem to be a setting to add it automatically from the 'Site Contents' when created, but hopefully there is a simple PowerShell script that can do it.

Thanks for any assistance.

You can add a document library to SharePoint Online navigation using below PnP PowerShell script:

#Config Variables
$SiteURL = "https://crescent.sharepoint.com/sites/retail"
$LibraryName = "Documents"
   
#Connect to the Site
Connect-PnPOnline -URL $SiteURL -Interactive
  
#Get the Library
$Library = Get-PnPList -Identity $LibraryName
$Library.OnQuickLaunch =  $true
$Library.Update()
Invoke-PnPQuery
