Before initiating the installation, Codefresh automatically validates the`values.yaml` file to verify that the supplied values are correct.

A validation error will automatically terminate the installation.

You can disable automated validationand manually runthevalidation if desired.

You canalsodisable automated validationglobally for all installation settings or for onlytheingress controller, and run validation manually.

The table below lists the settings validated in the`values` file.

where:

*`{NAMESPACE}` must be replaced with the namespace of the Hybrid GitOps Runtime.

You may want to disable automated validation for specific scenarios, such as to address false-negatives.

Do so by either adding the flag to the Helm install command or adding the relevant section to the values file.

{% endraw %}

{% endhighlight %}

Ingress validation checks if the ingress URL exists and responds to web requests.

During a GitOps Runtime installation, the ingress might not be active yet, causing DNS errors despite correct configuration. Disabling ingress validation allows the installation to proceed, assuming the ingress will work once the Runtime is fully operational.

Similar to disabling installation validation globally, you disable the validation for ingress by either adding the flag to the Helm install command or adding the relevant section to the values file.

{% highlight yaml %}

{% raw %}

...

global:

runtime:

ingress:

skipValidation: true

...

{% endraw %}

{% endhighlight %}

To manually validate the values file, run:

The Codefresh`values.yaml` located[here](https://github.com/codefresh-io/gitops-runtime-helm/blob/main/charts/gitops-runtime/){:target="\_blank"}, contains all the arguments you can configure, including optional ones. See ???
