Rotating Blob Storage Credentials
To rotate the blob storage credentials for Process Mining in Automation Suite an administrator will need to have access to the Kubernetes cluster secrets using either kubectl, lens, or another tool. The stored secrets detailed below must be updated with the new credentials, and the the pods for Airflow and Process Mining need to be restarted to make sure all pods for these service receive the new credentials.
Note: The storage credentials need to be updated in both the UiPath namespace and the Airflow namespace.
Note: The stored secret values are base 64 encoded. If using kubectl you will need to encode the values before updating them in
the cluster. If using Lens (k8slens) then the Lens tooling can do the decode/encode automatically.
Below is an examples of how to update secrets with kubectl:
kubectl patch secret processmining-external-storage-secret -n uipath -p "{\"data\":{\"ACCOUNTKEY\":\"<new_key_b64>\"}}"kubectl patch secret processmining-external-storage-secret -n uipath -p "{\"data\":{\"ACCOUNTKEY\":\"<new_key_b64>\"}}"UiPath Namespace

Note: Azure connection string is URL encoded; the string will need to be decoded, have the access key updated, then re-encoded.
