kosli tag

Synopsis

kosli tag RESOURCE-TYPE [RESOURCE-ID] [flags]

Tag a resource in Kosli with key-value pairs.
use —set to add or update tags, and —unset to remove tags. Valid resource types are: flow, flows, env, environment, environments, control, controls, repo, repos. Repos are identified by their name. If multiple repos share the same name across VCS providers, use —provider to disambiguate, or tag the repo unambiguously by its internal ID with —repo-id (see: kosli get repo). Note: in dry-run mode the repo name is not resolved to its internal ID (no request is made to Kosli), so the previewed request URL contains the name as-is, whereas a real run sends the resolved ID.

Flags

Flag	Description
`-D`, `--dry-run`	[optional] Run in dry-run mode. When enabled, no data is sent to Kosli and the CLI exits with 0 exit code regardless of any errors.
`-h`, `--help`	help for tag
`--provider` string	[optional] The VCS provider of the repo (e.g. github, gitlab). Only valid when tagging repos; required when multiple repos share the same name across providers.
`--repo-id` string	[optional] The repo’s internal ID (see: kosli get repo). Only valid when tagging repos; replaces the RESOURCE-ID argument and identifies the repo unambiguously.
`-s`, `--set` stringToString	[optional] The key-value pairs to tag the resource with. The format is: key=value
`-u`, `--unset` strings	[optional] The list of tag keys to remove from the resource.
