update
¶
Description¶
Updates the specified policy. You can update the description or the policy statements themselves.
Policy changes take effect typically within 10 seconds.
Optional Parameters¶
Usage of predefined tag keys. These predefined keys are scoped to namespaces. Example: {“foo-namespace”: {“bar-key”: “foo-value”}} This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.
The --generate-param-json-input
option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example
in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.
-
--description
[text]
¶
The description you assign to the policy. Does not have to be unique, and it’s changeable.
-
--force
¶
Perform update without prompting for confirmation.
Simple key-value pair that is applied without any predefined name, type or scope. Exists for cross-compatibility only. Example: {“bar-key”: “value”} This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.
The --generate-param-json-input
option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example
in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.
-
--from-json
[text]
¶
Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.
The --generate-full-command-json-input
option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.
Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.
For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions
-
--if-match
[text]
¶
For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource’s current etag value.
-
--statements
[text]
¶
A JSON array of policy statements written in the policy language. See How Policies Work and Common Policies. Example: ‘[“statement 1”,”statement 2”]’ (The single quotes are required.)
-
--version-date
[text]
¶
The version of the policy. If set to an empty string, when a request comes in for authorization, the policy will be evaluated according to the current behavior of the services at that moment. If set to a particular date (YYYY-MM-DD), the policy will be evaluated according to the behavior of the services on that date.

Example using required parameter¶
Copy and paste the following example into a JSON file, replacing the example parameters with your own.
oci iam policy create --generate-param-json-input statements > statements.json
Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.
Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration and appropriate security policies before trying the examples.
