1.27.0 - 2026-09-05

v1.27.0 Sep 5 2026 at 17:29 UTC

Changed

  • One name per concept: -i/--input and -o/--output - Every command that reads a local file, directory or glob now takes --input: asset create (was --file), asset create-batch (was --files), asset metadata create-batch (was --csv-file), folder upload (was --local-path), config import (was --file). Every command that writes takes -o/--output: asset download (was a bare positional argument), asset thumbnail (was --file), folder download and folder thumbnails (gained the -o short form). The old spellings still work as hidden aliases, and asset download still accepts the positional path, so no script breaks; only the help text and documentation changed.
  • -q is now --quiet, and --force has no short form - -f meant --format on about forty commands but --force on folder delete; -q was --text on text-match while --quiet had no short form. folder delete -f and text-match -q no longer parse; use --force and --text. These are the only two breaking changes in this release.
  • A flag that can change nothing now says so - --pretty with CSV, --headers with JSON or tree, --metadata on asset similarity, and format flags on tenant use used to be accepted in silence. They still are, but with a warning naming the flag and why it has no effect.
