Consul ACL Templated Policies

Command: consul acl templated-policy

Use the acl templated-policy command to manage templated ACL policies. It exposes commands for reading, previewing, and listing templated policies.

You can also manage ACL templated policies using the /templated-policies HTTP API endpoint.

All of the example subcommands require a valid Consul token with the appropriate permissions. Either set the CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN environment variable to the token's secret ID or pass the secret ID as the value of the -token parameter.
