Not possible to enable disabled rule using Qlik-Cli Update-QlikRule

Hi!

I thought it would be convenient to enable a disabled rule using the Qlik-Cli function Update-QlikRule,

but it doesn't seem possible.

"-disabled" is a switch, and if its provided the rule is set to "Disabled", if it's left out nothing happens with the "Disabled" status,

trying with:

-disabled $false

gives a syntax error (as expected with the current function implementation)

Please correct me if I'm wrong

try

-disabled:$false

note it is a colon ":" not a space between the flag and value

Thanks! So easy when you know...

😁to be fair this was discussed a couple of years ago between myself & @Adam_Haydon...

The issue was around inadvertently enabling a rule that was being updated
