influx secret update
The influx secret update command adds and updates secrets.
Provide the secret key with the -k or --key flag.
You may also provide the secret value with the -v or --value flag.
If you do not provide the secret value with the -v or --value flag,
enter the value when prompted.
Providing a secret value with the -v or --value flag may expose the secret
in your command history.
