Update a field definition

--field-definition-id string required

The identifier for the field definition.

--definition string required

The field definition as a YAML string describing a single field (type, label, control, metadata).

--owner string required

The application that owns this field definition.

--dry-run

When true, runs authorization, body, and identity-immutability validation without updating the field definition. Returns { "valid": true } on success.

--description string

Optional human-readable description of the field's purpose.

--is-global

When true, this field is rendered in every case for this owner, regardless of the template used. Global fields cannot be demoted (set to false) while they are linked to an active custom field in the Cases configuration.

--name string

The field name, unique per owner (case-insensitive). Must match the name key inside the YAML definition. When omitted, the name is extracted from the definition YAML automatically. Immutable after creation. Unlike POST, the 50-character limit is not enforced on PUT so that definitions with legacy names that exceed the limit remain modifiable.

--input-file string

path to a JSON file to use as command input

--no-validate

skip input validation and send the request as-is

--output-fields string

comma-separated list of fields to include in output (dot-notation supported)

--output-template string

Mustache-like template for custom text output (e.g. "{{id}}: {{name}}")

--json

output as JSON
