How to update a kvstore field from a local CSV file?

[edroche3rd]

Happy Sunday All!

I added a field to my KVSTORE, but want to be able to backfill that field with the appropriate data. I don't have access to the server to put input file on server then input. Is there a way to do it from a CSV from my desktop?

Thanks
Ed

You could make an API call to manage the store..

or use | outputlookup my_kvstore

from search results (if ur data is avail there), where my_kvstore is the name of your store, to overwrite that kvstore entry...
be sure you look up the key first so you update/delete the right record!
