update_parameter

ParameterStoreApi.update_parameter(key, role_id, parameters_put_request_body, _request_timeout=None, _request_auth=None, _content_type=None, _headers=None, _host_index=0)

Update a parameter value, description, or managers

Updates SSM (overwrite) and DynamoDB metadata for an existing parameter. ParameterType, Scope, and ParameterKey cannot change. User-scoped parameters need editor+; global parameters need a manager when a managers list exists.

Parameters:
  • key (str) – Full stored ParameterKey, URL-decoded (for example /adp/amorphic/pstore/user/amp-db-host). This path value is used; ParameterKey in the body is ignored. (required)

  • role_id (str) – Amorphic role ID sent for authorization. Missing this header returns AUTH-1001. (required)

  • parameters_put_request_body (ParametersPutRequestBody) – (required)

  • _request_timeout (int, tuple(int, int), optional) – timeout setting for this request. If one number provided, it will be total request timeout. It can also be a pair (tuple) of (connection, read) timeouts.

  • _request_auth (dict, optional) – set to override the auth_settings for an a single request; this effectively ignores the authentication in the spec for a single request.

  • _content_type (str, Optional) – force content-type for the request.

  • _headers (dict, optional) – set to override the headers for a single request; this effectively ignores the headers in the spec for a single request.

  • _host_index (int, optional) – set to override the host_index for a single request; this effectively ignores the host_index in the spec for a single request.
