### `helm-registry`
{% data variables.product.prodname_dependabot %} works with any OCI-compliant registries that implement the Open Container Initiative (OCI) Distribution Specification. For more information, see [Open Container Initiative Distribution Specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/distribution-spec/blob/main/spec.md) in the `opencontainers/distribution-spec` repository. {% data variables.product.prodname_dependabot %} supports authentication to private registries via a central token service or HTTP Basic Auth. For further details, see [Token Authentication Specification](https://helm.sh/docs/helm/helm_registry_login/) in the Docker documentation and [Basic access authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication) on Wikipedia.
The `helm-registry` type only supports HTTP Basic Auth and does not support OCI-compliant registries. If you need to access an OCI-compliant registry for Helm charts, configure a [`docker-registry`](#docker-registry) instead.
The `helm-registry` type supports username and password. {% data reusables.dependabot.password-definition %}

When configuring Dependabot for Helm charts, it will also automatically update the Docker images referenced within those charts, ensuring that both the chart versions and their contained images stay up to date.
