  1. Call list_cas_templates to find the template ID and other information about a template to update.
     grdapi list_cas_templates templateSetLabel=testSet
    ID=20001
    Id, auditType, template, enabled, period, useMD5, saveData, isEditable
    20000, FILE, tempTest, true, 3600, false, false, true
    ok
    
  2. Call update_cas_template to change the name and time period.
    grdapi update_cas_template templateId=20000 template=newName period=5
    
    ID=20000
    ok
    
  3. Call list_cas_templates again to show the changes/
grdapi list_cas_templates templateSetLabel=testSet
