Modern Calendar Views

[paylord]

Is there a way to add a modern calendar view using PnP.PowerShell?

I have tried Add-PnPView -ViewType Calendar and it adds a classic calendar view.

Here's how you can do this with PnP PowerShell. I needs to be done using SPO Rest API (see my blog for further details)

$list = New-PnPList -Title "ModernCalendar" -Template Events 
Set-PnPList -Identity $List -ListExperience NewExperience # Set list experience to force the list to display in Modern

$viewTitle = "Calendar"
Remove-PnPView -Identity $viewTitle -List $list -Force #Remove Classic Style Calandar Default View

$viewCreationJson = @"
{
    "parameters": {
        "__metadata": {
            "type": "SP.ViewCreationInformation"
        },
        "Title": "Calendar",
        "ViewFields": {
            "__metadata": {
                "type": "Collection(Edm.String)"
            },
            "results": [
                "EventDate",
                "EndDate",
                "Title"
            ]
        },
        "ViewTypeKind": 1,
        "ViewType2": "MODERNCALENDAR",
        "ViewData": "<FieldRef Name=\"Title\" Type=\"CalendarMonthTitle\" /><FieldRef Name=\"Title\" Type=\"CalendarWeekTitle\" /><FieldRef Name=\"Title\" Type=\"CalendarWeekLocation\" /><FieldRef Name=\"Title\" Type=\"CalendarDayTitle\" /><FieldRef Name=\"Title\" Type=\"CalendarDayLocation\" />",
        "CalendarViewStyles": "<CalendarViewStyle Title=\"Day\" Type=\"day\" Template=\"CalendarViewdayChrome\" Sequence=\"1\" Default=\"FALSE\" /><CalendarViewStyle Title=\"Week\" Type=\"week\" Template=\"CalendarViewweekChrome\" Sequence=\"2\" Default=\"FALSE\" /><CalendarViewStyle Title=\"Month\" Type=\"month\" Template=\"CalendarViewmonthChrome\" Sequence=\"3\" Default=\"TRUE\" />",
        "Query": "",
        "Paged": true,
        "PersonalView": false,
        "RowLimit": 0
    }
}
"@

Invoke-PnPSPRestMethod -Method Post -Url "$url/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('$($list.title)')/Views/Add"  -ContentType "application/json;odata=verbose" -Content $viewCreationJson

Set-PnPView -List $list -Identity $viewTitle -Values @{DefaultView=$true;MobileView=$true;MobileDefaultView=$true} #Set View To Be Default

@LeonArmston Hopefully at some point a simpler PnP command option will be added but this is a great workaround in the meantime - thanks :)
