unlock

The unlock command is used to force the unlocking of entries in a space. Entries can be unlocked using either the lock_id parameter or the all parameter. The lock ID of a space entry can be discovered using the show space <space_name> locks command.

You can use the command parameters to:

  • Unlock all entries in a space (For example, unlock space ‘myspace’ all)
  • Unlock all entries locked by a particular space member (For example, unlock space ‘myspace’ all member_name ‘member1’)
  • Unlock entries that satisfy a filter string (For example, unlock space ‘myspace’ all filter ‘state=CA’)
  • Unlock a subset of entries locked by a particular space member (For example, unlock space ‘myspace’ all member_name ‘member1’ filter ‘total>1000’)
  • Unlock a space entry that has a particular key value (For example, unlock space ‘myspace’ all filter ‘key=5’).
