Hi @vaishali-udupa - are you getting an error or what is the outcome? You haven't really provided enough for us to have a look at this. Thanks!

Thank you for your interest in the sp-pnp-js library. We wanted to mention that this library is being deprecated in July, 2018 in favor of the new scoped pnpjs libraries. You should begin transitioning your existing projects when possible, or start new projects with the new libraries. Please see the transition guide for more details on migrating and be sure to let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!
