Perform a Day 2 Action: Change Lease
You can use the REST API catalog service to change a lease. For actions that require user input, you
may need to edit the template prior to submitting the request.
This command leverages the links for the change lease action from the command used in the Syntax for
Navigating to the Children of a Deployed Resource example.
