Before You Begin

How RotateAuth Works

For a Neo4jOpsRequest with spec.type: RotateAuth, KubeDB Ops-manager:

  1. Validates rotate-auth request and target database.
  2. Uses one of the supported credential sources:
    • operator-managed generated secret,
    • user-provided secret from spec.authentication.secretRef.
  3. Rotates credentials in Neo4j and updates auth secret state.
  4. Ensures database authentication remains healthy.
  5. Marks the request Successful when rotation completes.
