Note

This version of the EB CLI and its documentation have been replaced with version 3 (in this section, EB CLI 3 represents version 3 and later of the EB CLI). For information on the new version, see The Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface (EB CLI).

(Setting values in .elasticbeanstalk/optionsettings take precedence over the values specified for the same settings specified in .ebextensions/*.conf if the settings are configured in both places.) Use this operation after making changes to your settings (for example, via init or branch).
