Hey are you planning to include a way of updating the value of a feature flag in the sdk for JavaScript? Something like:
gb.updateFeatureFlag('feature-flag-key', true);
I need to change the values of the feature flags from outside the Growthbook ui. Is there a way of doing this?

We do have a REST endpoint to toggle feature flag states - https://docs.growthbook.io/app/api#toggle-feature
Right now, it only lets you control the top-level environment toggles. In the future, we plan to add support to let you modify rules and other properties of the feature flag

it's for any feature type, but it's just for the kill switches. All features have top-level toggles for each environment that determines if it's included in the API response or not. And then, if it is included, the feature has a default value, which could be a boolean, string, etc..
Setting the toggle with that REST endpoint to "off", will basically make the feature value
null
. Setting it to "on", will make it use the default value defined in the GrowthBook UI
