sq pki link retract - Retract links

sq pki link retract [OPTIONS]

Retract links.

This command retracts links that were previously created using `sq pki link add` or `sq pki link authorize`. See that subcommand's documentation for more details. Note: this is called `retract` and not `remove`, because the certifications are not removed. Instead a new certification is added, which says that the binding has not been authenticated.

`sq pki link retract` respects the reference time set by the top-level `--time` argument. This causes a link to be retracted as of a particular time instead of the current time.

Use certificates with the specified fingerprint or key ID
Use the specified email address
Add a notation to the certification. A user-defined notation's name must be of the form `name@a.domain.you.control.org`. If the notation's name starts with a !, then the notation is marked as being critical. If a consumer of a signature doesn't understand a critical notation, then it will ignore the signature. The notation is marked as being human readable.
Recreate signature even if the parameters did not change
If the link parameters did not change, and thus creating a signature should not be necessary, we omit the operation. This flag can be given to force the signature to be re-created anyway.
Use the specified user ID

See sq(1) for a description of the global options.
