• 1. On the Home tab of the instance for which you want to modify the custom properties, click Custom Properties.

  3. On the details page of the custom property, click Edit.

     Important
     
     

     • You can't change the datatype for the custom property.
     • If the Allow multiple values is selected previously, you can't clear the selection.
     • You can only add more values for the custom property. You can't delete existing values.
     • You can associate more data catalog objects with the custom property or disassociate an existing data catalog object. When you disassociate an object, a delete job is created.
     • While editing, if a subtype is associated with a custom property, you can't add a parent type to it. For example, you can't add the All data entities to a custom property that's already associated with the Table subtype. To associate all the subtypes, add them one by one to the custom property.
  5. Click Save changes.

• Use the update command and required parameters to edit a custom property configuration:

  oci data-catalog custom-property update [OPTIONS]

  For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

• Run the UpdateCustomProperty operation to edit a custom property configuration.
