    4. In the console history list, for the console history capture that you want to view, from the actions menu (3 dots) select View details. The console history and metadata are displayed.

  • Use the compute console-history update command and required parameters to edit an instance console history log:

    oci compute console-history update --instance-console-history-id <instance-console-history-id>

    Or use a JSON file to set parameters:

    oci compute console-history update --from-json <file://path/to/file.json>

    <file://path/to/file.json> is the path to a JSON file that defines the instance details. For information about how to generate an example of the JSON file, see Advanced JSON Options.

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for the Compute service CLI commands, see the command line reference for Compute.
