Ways the image changes

The behavior depends on the project source.

Projects created from an OCI image

• You can change the OCI image in the console whenever you want to publish a new version.
• Public images require no authentication.
• Private images can use AWS ECR or username + token/password authentication.
• The authentication type cannot be changed after creation.

Important: A project created with OCI image source remains an OCI project. It cannot later be converted into a GitHub project.

Projects created from GitHub

• GitHub-based projects do not later switch to a manual OCI image flow.
• Automatic update on push only happens if auto-deploy was enabled during project creation.

Points to keep in mind

• Changing an OCI image can restart the instance.
• For GitHub projects, a push only triggers automatic update when auto-deploy is enabled.
• A public image stays public and a private image stays private after creation.
