Description

due to documentation a "private-endpoint-type" autonomous database can be updated to "public-endpoint-type" one by executing the following command :
oci db autonomous-database update --autonomous-database-id "$ADB_ID" --private-endpoint-label ""
i.e. - setting --private-endpoint-label to an empty string
Source:
https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/db/autonomous-database/update.html
however - when executed this command raises the following error:
"message": "The DNS prefix or Subnet ID for Autonomous AI Database private endpoints cannot be updated."
...
"operation_name": "update_autonomous_database",
...
"status": 400,
"target_service": "database",
which means, that although updating an ADB from public to private network works fine, it is not possible, by using OCI CLI to rollback the change

Research direction

Start by reproducing the documented oci db autonomous-database update command with an empty --private-endpoint-label, then compare its behavior with the linked Autonomous Database update documentation. Trace the update_autonomous_database entry point and determine whether the CLI mishandles the empty value or the service rejects the transition. Done means the documented rollback works through OCI CLI, or the documentation and command behavior clearly agree.
