@mvanhorn I think you missed the main goal of the related issue. The idea is to rename the entire command to spo web rule and add the current spo web alert name as alias. That way in near future the removal of the web alert commands will be easy and clean as we will just remove the alias.
Instead, your PR does not perform the rename but adds the web rule as an alias and also fails to add the ## Alias section in the documentation for those commands.
Unfortunately, this PR requires a rebuild from the very beginning. Please give this another shot before we proceed
Summary
Adds
spo web rule listas an alias forspo web alert list, andspo web rule removeas an alias forspo web alert remove, per #7036. Both names now resolve to the same underlying command, so scripts using either one keep working.Why this matters
From the issue thread: SharePoint alerts are deprecated, and #7036 traces the user-visible confusion —
alertdoesn't reflect current terminology. The maintainer discussion (@waldekmastykarz, @Adam-it, @milanholemans all signed off) agreed that addingrulealiases is the forward path, with thealertnames kept as the existing aliases on the command classes. The issue opens the door to a full rename later; this PR delivers the user-visible outcome (both names work) without renaming the files.Changes
