OpenSearch: 6. Change the configuration

This documentation is part of the Automate with the CLI guide. View the full guide here: Start OpenSearch, retrieve its credentials, and change its configuration programmatically with the Stackhero CLI.

👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero provides a fully managed OpenSearch cloud environment designed for both performance and security:

• High performance and strong security on a private, dedicated infrastructure.
• Use your own custom domain name, protected with HTTPS by default.
• Built-in OpenSearch Dashboards for easy data exploration and visualization.

Cut out setup and maintenance hassles: you can be up and running with OpenSearch cloud hosting from Stackhero in just a few minutes.

You can review an example configuration schema and then apply your own settings. When you update the configuration, the service may restart to apply the changes.

# View the configuration schema and an example for your service
stackhero service-configuration-example --service=svc-xxxxxx

# Apply a custom configuration (the service restarts if needed)
stackhero service-configuration-set \
  --service=svc-xxxxxx \
  --configuration='{ "...": "..." }'

# Wait for the new configuration to be applied
stackhero service-wait-for --service=svc-xxxxxx

That is it. You have now seen the full lifecycle: start a service, retrieve its credentials, and reconfigure it, all in a scriptable, automated way. To dive deeper, check out the full CLI documentation, which also covers the non-interactive STACKHERO_TOKEN authentication demonstrated here.
