I have created a survey list. I need to change the redirection from QstNew.aspx page to Overview.aspx.

For this purpose,I require list name to be fetched dynamically.

I can get the list GUID from the QstNew.aspx page URL.I need to get the List name from the GUID.

Can anyone give the answers...or suggest how to get the current list name using Javascript

Thanks!!

You can use the below rest call as well.:

Replace guid with your list guid.

$.ajax({
        url: _spPageContextInfo.siteAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists(guid 'b778bbec-dd69-4a6c-9437-c73972c36292')",
        method: "GET",
        headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },
        success: function (data) {
            console.log("List Title :" + data.d.Title);
        },
        error: function (data) {
            console.log(data);
        }
  });

Using Client Object Model will help in this case:

var oList;

function getListTitleById() {
    var clientContext = SP.ClientContext.get_current();

    oList = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getById(__ID of the list__);

    clientContext.load(oList,"Title");

    clientContext.executeQueryAsync(
            Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQuerySucceeded), 
            Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQueryFailed)
        );
}

function onQuerySucceeded(sender, args) {
    alert('Title: ' + this.oList.get_title());
}

function onQueryFailed(sender, args) {
    alert('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + 
        '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
}

Where oList is a global variable.

This is JSOM, meaning JavaScript Object Model for SharePoint. Do you mean without using JSOM? – Arsalan Adam Khatri 18 hours ago
