Check If The List Is Present In The SharePoint Site, Using PnP PowerShell

This blog shows the syntax and commands to get the list and how to check whether the list exist.

In this blog, we are going to see how to check if the given list is available in the current context site or not. The PnP PowerShell cmdlet is used to get the list based on the title or id.

Get-PnPList -Identity <List Title or ID or Url>

The below PowerShell code helps to check if the given list is present or not based on the List Title using PnP PowerShell.

$cred = Get - Credential
$siteurl = "https://snips.sharepoint.com/sites/dev"
$listTitle = "Documents 1"
Connect - PnPOnline - Url $siteurl - Credential $cred
$list = Get - PnPList - Identity $listTitle
If($list.Title - eq $listTitle) {
    Write - Host $listTitle " - List exist!"
}
ELSE {
    Write - Host $listTitle " - List not exist!"
}

Output

If the list not present on the site -

Documents 1 - List not exist!

If the list is present on the site -

Documents 1 - List exist!
