OpenTelemetry Helm Charts
August 3, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
This repository contains Helm charts for OpenTelemetry project.
Usage
Helm must be installed to use the charts. Please refer to Helm's documentation to get started.
Once Helm is set up properly, add the repo as follows:
helm repo add open-telemetry https://open-telemetry.github.io/opentelemetry-helm-charts
Helm Provenance and Integrity
All charts in this repository are signed. More information about how to verify charts can be found in the official Helm documentation.
A local running gpg agent is mandatory.
To import the signing key for this repository run the following command:
curl https://open-telemetry.github.io/opentelemetry-helm-charts/pubkey.gpg | gpg --import
Helm reads a legacy GnuPG keyring, which modern GnuPG (2.1+) does not create on import. Depending on your GnuPG version, you may need to export the imported key so that Helm can find it:
gpg --export > ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
You can now use the --verify flag during helm install
to enable chart signature validation.
