## defradb client document add

Add a new document.

### Synopsis

Add a new document.

Options:
	-i, --identity
		Marks the document as private and set the identity as the owner. The access to the document
		and permissions are controlled by ACP (Access Control Policy).

	-e, --encrypt
		Encrypt flag specified if the document needs to be encrypted. If set, DefraDB will generate a
		symmetric key for encryption using AES-GCM.

	--encrypt-fields
		Comma-separated list of fields to encrypt. If set, DefraDB will encrypt only the specified fields
		and for every field in the list it will generate a symmetric key for encryption using AES-GCM.
		If combined with '--encrypt' flag, all the fields in the document not listed in '--encrypt-fields'
		will be encrypted with the same key.
