JSOM: Alter a column’s DisplayName

Here is another article in my JSOM series. For one month ago I showed how to alter a column’s ShowInDisplayForm property with JSOM. This time I’ll show a code sample for changing a column’s (field’s) display name. If you want to alter the displayname with Server Object Model, grab the code in the sharepoint.stackexchange.com: Change Field’s DisplayName in a List.

var ctx = SP.ClientContext.get_current(),              //SP.ClientContext
    field = ctx.get_web()                              //SP.Web
               .get_lists()                            //SP.ListCollection
               .getByTitle('MyList')                   //SP.List
	       .get_fields()                           //SP.FieldCollection
	       .getByInternalNameOrTitle("Body");      //SP.Field
ctx.load(field, "Title");                              //load only Title
ctx.executeQueryAsync(function() {
	field.set_title("Beskrivning");
	field.update();
	ctx.executeQueryAsync();
});
