Update a Knowledge Object

To update a knowledge object, you need the following information:

The ID of the knowledge object you want to update. The object ID can be obtained by using the fsoc knowledge get command.
A JSON or YAML file containing the knowledge object data fields (and respective values) that you want to update.

HTTP PUT is used internally to update knowledge objects. All updates must adhere to the HTTP PUT RFC.

To update an existing knowledge object, run the following command:

fsoc knowledge update --type <fully-qualified-typename>
--object-id <object-id>
--object-file <fully-qualified-path>
--layer-type <ACCOUNT|GLOBALUSER|TENANT|LOCALUSER>
--layer-id <layer-id>

Limitation: The ACCOUNT and GLOBALUSER layers are not currently supported.

The following table describes the attributes used in the command:

Attribute	Data Type	Description
`--layer-id`	String	The `layer-id` of the knowledge object to update. Optional for `TENANT` and `SOLUTION` layers.
`--layer-type`	String	The `layer-type` of the knowledge object to update.
