### Usage
Usage: `consul acl translate-rules [options] TRANSLATE`
#### Command Options
- `TRANSLATE` - The rules to translate. If `-` is used, then
the rules will be read from stdin. If `@` is prefixed to
the value then the value is considered to be a file and
the rules will be read from that file.
- `-token-secret` - Specifies that what the `TRANSLATE` argument
holds is not a rule set but rather the token secret ID of a
legacy ACL token that holds the rule set.
- `-token-accessor` - Specifies that what the `TRANSLATE` argument
holds is not a rule set but rather the token accessor ID of a
legacy ACL token that holds the rule set.
#### API Options
@include 'http_api_options_client.mdx'
@include 'http_api_options_server.mdx'
### Examples
Translate rules within a file:
```shell-session
$ consul acl translate-rules @rules.hcl

Translate rules from stdin:
```shell-session
$ consul acl translate-rules -
```
Translate rules from a string argument:

Translate rules for a legacy ACL token using its SecretID passed from stdin:

```shell-session
$ consul acl translate-rules 429cd746-03d5-4bbb-a83a-18b164171c89
