How to Modify the SharePoint List Toolbar Buttons

Want to edit the toolbar on a list in SharePoint Online as shown above?  April Dunham has provided an excellent and concise video on YouTube.   She covers how to hide, move, and edit the text on the various toolbar buttons on a SharePoint list by editing the JSON for the List view.

Caveat: You have to edit the JSON for each view separately.  And anyone with the permissions to create a new view can clearly do so and then enjoy the default buttons, thereby bypassing your cleverness.

She provides a high-level overview with a few examples.  This spurred me into looking for a complete list of commands and functions for editing a List toolbar.  So here it is: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/view-commandbar-formatting 

Now go customize those list menus and impress your users!
