influx secret update

  • influx CLI 2.0.0+
  • InfluxDB 2.0.0+

The influx secret update command adds and updates secrets. Provide the secret key with the -k or --key flag. You may also provide the secret value with the -v or --value flag. If you do not provide the secret value with the -v or --value flag, enter the value when prompted.

Providing a secret value with the -v or --value flag may expose the secret in your command history.

If you do not have a CLI configuration set up or the environment variables set, include these required credentials for each command with the following flags:
