I have a site setup in SharePoint online at:
aaa.sharepoint.com/fr
The trouble is that this is an internal acronym and new staff always go to the long version of this URL.
Is there a way I can redirect
aaa.sharepoint.com/fundraising
to
aaa.sharepoint.com/fr
without having to create another SharePoint site and a redirection page?
Click the URL Redirects tab. In the upper right, click Add URL redirect. In the right panel, select the Standard or Flexible redirect type. A standard redirect is used to redirect one URL to another.
Add the Redirect Page content type via Library settings > Add from existing site content types if you do not see “Redirect Page” in the list. 2. Edit the page and then enter the destination URL you wish to redirect the page to under “Redirect URL”. After that, check in and then publish the page.
Change a site address in the new SharePoint admin center To open the details pane, select the site name. On the General tab, under URL, select Edit. Enter the new site address, and then select Save.
You don't have much options: being in SP Online you don't own the infrastructure, thus you can't rely on some techniques which may be overkill for this simple case, such as plugging in a custom HttpModule in the IIS pipeline, or working with IIS Rewrite URLs.
The only would be putting an extra 'entrance door' for your SP Online, by using for instance a custom domain (e.g. portal.contoso.com).
Your users will use the custom domain URL instead to access (no more tenant.sharepoint.com); and associated with that you can have some infrastructure you control, such as a reverse proxy. You'd put your rewrite rules there.
