ConfigMaps

The ConfigMaps screen lists all ConfigMap resources across namespaces.

Columns

Column	Description
Name	ConfigMap name
Namespace	Namespace
Data Keys	Number of key-value pairs in the ConfigMap
Age	Time since creation

Actions

View / Edit YAML

Double-click a row to open the full ConfigMap YAML in an editor panel. Make changes and click Apply to update.

Key-Value Editor

Click the sliders icon on a row to open the key-value editor panel. This gives a structured view of the ConfigMap's data — each key and value displayed in a table. You can:

• Edit values inline
• Add new key-value pairs
• Delete existing keys

Changes are saved back to the cluster when you click Save in the panel.

Tip

The key-value editor is more convenient than YAML for ConfigMaps that store simple text configuration. Use YAML view when the values are multi-line (e.g., config files, nginx.conf).

Bulk Delete

Select one or more ConfigMaps and click Delete Selected. Confirm in the dialog.

Warning

Deleting a ConfigMap that is mounted by running pods does not immediately affect those pods — the mounted values are cached. However, pods that restart after deletion will fail to start if the ConfigMap is required.

Filtering

Use the filter row under each column header to search by name, namespace, or data key count.
