# Rotating keys (Helm)

{% hint style="info" %}
This documentation only applies to **advanced Orchestrated container deployments** using **Kubernetes** and **Helm**
{% endhint %}

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](/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/configure-your-own-buckets.md), [BigQuery OAuth connections](/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-bigquery-oauth-connections.md), [Google basemaps](/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-google-basemaps.md) 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](/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/configure-your-own-buckets.md), [BigQuery OAuth connections](/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-bigquery-oauth-connections.md), [Google basemaps](/carto-self-hosted/guides/guides/enable-google-basemaps.md) 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.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.carto.com/carto-self-hosted/maintenance/maintenance-helm/rotating-keys.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
