General discussion • Remote flashing of Pi devices

I am looking for a way to flash my Pi devices from time to time with the following requirements:
- My devices are all headless, so that I cannot interrupt boot procedure by keyboard
- Flashing needs to be done in non-interactive mode
- As such all required steps need to be run from comand line so that I can build a script for the required steps

I see two ways of achieving that on the first view, but both have their limitations.

Solution 1: HTTP Boot (raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers ... #http-boot)
I am not able to interrupt boot procedure and force Pi to load image via HTTP. as my devices are headless. So I need to provide a way to force the Pi to load the image via http at next boot (otherwise the Pi would simply load from USB-SSD). Is this possible from cli?

Solution 2:
I tried to run rpi-imager locally on that Pi device from cli with the following commands:But this creates the following error:Can anybody help?
