## Deployment

### 1. Get Helm Repository Info

```bash theme={null}
helm repo add dify https://langgenius.github.io/dify-helm
helm repo update
```

For more information, please refer to [Dify Helm Chart](/versions/3-0-x/en-us/deployment/advanced-configuration/dify-helm-chart).

### 2. Save Helm Chart Values

* Save Helm chart values to a file named `values.yaml`.
* Update the `values.yaml` file with your configuration.

<Warning>
  - Please replace the `#REPLACE_ME#` placeholder with your actual values.
  - Please replace "dify123456" with your own value.
  - `global.appSecretKey` and `enterprise.appSecretKey` must be different.
</Warning>
