In this blog, we are going to retrieve all the fields from a list and will add/remove a field from a SharePoint list using PnP PowerShell. For that, first, we need to connect to the site.

 

To establish the connection, add this command.

 

$SiteUrl = Read-Host "Provide Site URL"

 

Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteUrl

 

#Executing this line will ask for credentials. Provide a username and password to connect.

 

 

To retrieve all fields, add the below command.

 

$Fields = Get-PnPField -List "Test"

  

 

To add a field to a list, add this command.

 

Add-PnPField -List "Test" -DisplayName "Designation" -InternalName "Designation" -Type MultiChoice -AddToDefaultView -Choices "HR","CEO", "DEVELOPER","TESTER"

 

 

To remove a field from list, execute this command.

 

Remove-PnPField -List "Test" -Identity "Designation"

 

Executing this command opens a popup window for confirmation of the field to be deleted.

   

Clicking on YES will remove the field from the list.
