Customize the SharePoint command bar icons and titles with JSON formatting

Previously I posted about hiding buttons in a SharePoint list using JSON formatting using the command bar customization.

The same customization features can be used to edit the buttons icons and titles, for example, below we have a custom bar that replaced some of the native buttons icons and text.

By adding values to the ‘text‘ and ‘iconName‘ properties we can accomplish this.

For example, if we apply the below JSON snippet as view formatter in a view:

{
    "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/row-formatting.schema.json",
    "commandBarProps": {
      "commands": [
        {
          "key": "new",
          "text": "Add a new Event Session",
          "iconName": "Feedback"
        },
        {
          "key": "export",
          "text": "Export this list"       
        },
        {
          "key": "automate",
          "text": "Workflows",
          "iconName" : "WorkFlow"
           
        },
        {
          "key":...
