Docs Self-Managed Reference rpk Commands rpk profile rpk profile set This is documentation for Self-Managed v24.2. To view the latest available version of the docs, see v24.3. rpk profile set Set fields in the current rpk profile. As in the create command, this command takes a list of key=value pairs to write to the current profile. The key can either be the name of a -X flag or the path to the field in the profile’s yaml format. For example, using --set tls.enabled=true or --set kafka_api.tls.enabled=true is equivalent. The former corresponds to the -X flag tls.enabled, while the latter corresponds to the path kafka_api.tls.enabled in the profile’s yaml. This command supports autocompletion of valid keys, suggesting the -X key format. If you begin writing a YAML path, this command will suggest the rest of the path. You can also use the format set key value if you intend to only set one key.
