glab-securefile-update - Man Page

Update a secure file in a project.

Synopsis

glab securefile update   [flags]

Description

Update a secure file in a project, identified by its name. The command asks for confirmation before updating; use -y to skip the prompt in scripts.

By default, the file is updated in the current project. Use --repo to target another project.

If the file content is unchanged, no update is performed.

Updating a secure file changes its ID. When you download the file afterward, reference it by --name instead of --id.

Options

-y, --yes[=false] Skip the confirmation prompt.

Options Inherited from Parent Commands

-h, --help[=false] Show help for this command.

-R, --repo="" Select another repository. You can use either OWNER/REPO or GROUP/NAMESPACE/REPO. The full URL or Git URL is also accepted.

Example

# Update a secure file
glab securefile update "file.txt" securefiles/localfile.txt

# Skip the confirmation prompt
glab securefile update "file.txt" securefiles/localfile.txt -y

# Use the 'overwrite' alias
glab securefile overwrite "file.txt" securefiles/localfile.txt
