How to patch scaled objects?

[yaroslav-nakonechnikov]

I'm trying to patch scaled object like:
kubectl patch scaledobject -n namespace scaled_project -p '{"spec":{"triggers":[{"metadata":{"value":80},"metricType":"Utilization","type":"cpu"},{"metadata":{"value":80},"metricType":"Utilization","type":"memory"}]}}'
and it fails:
Error from server (UnsupportedMediaType): the body of the request was in an unknown format - accepted media types include: application/json-patch+json, application/merge-patch+json, application/apply-patch+yaml

why? how to workaround that?

You need to specify the patch type (--type).

kubectl patch scaledobject -n namespace scaled_project --type json -p '[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/triggers","value":[{"metadata":{"value":"80"},"metricType":"Utilization","type":"cpu"},{"metadata":{"value":"80"},"metricType":"Utilization","type":"memory"}]}]'
