Rotating keys in CARTO Self-Hosted is a simple process to ensure the security of your custom buckets, BigQuery OAuth connections, Google basemaps and custom LDS API Keys. Below are instructions for both the single VM deployment and orchestrated container deployment versions.

## **Setup**

#### If you've provided redacted secrets values:

1. Access the <mark style="color:orange;">customizations.yaml</mark> file used to deploy your CARTO Self-Hosted platform.
2. Update the keys related to [custom buckets](https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/configure-your-own-buckets), [BigQuery OAuth connections](https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-bigquery-oauth-connections), [Google basemaps](https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-google-basemaps) and LDS API Keys.
3. Save the changes to the <mark style="color:orange;">customizations.yaml</mark> file.
4. Upgrade your Self-Hosted installation to apply the changes.

**If you need to update secrets manually:**

1. Identify the secrets associated with [custom buckets](https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/configure-your-own-buckets), [BigQuery OAuth connections](https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-bigquery-oauth-connections), [Google basemaps](https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-google-basemaps) and LDS API Keys.
2. Use the `kubectl` command to update the specific secrets.
3. Upgrade your installation to apply the changes.

Remember to perform these steps with caution, ensuring minimal downtime for your CARTO Self-Hosted deployment.
