replace(data: { *: Any }) => AccessProvider

Description

Replaces all fields in an AccessProvider document with fields from a provided data object. Fields not present in the data object, excluding the coll and ts metadata fields, are removed.

AccessProvider documents are FQL versions of a database’s FSL access provider schema. AccessProvider documents have the AccessProvider type. See Access providers.

You can’t use this method to insert or edit the following metadata fields:

  • coll

  • ts

A schema change triggers a transaction that validates the entire database schema. To avoid errors, do one of the following instead:
