# Multicloud ConfigMaps

ConfigMap is an API object used to save non-confidential data into key-value pairs.
When used, Pods can use it as an environment variable, as a command-line argument, or as a configuration file in a storage volume.

Multicloud ConfigMaps can decouple multicloud environment configuration information from container images, making it easy to modify the configuration of multicloud applications.

Two creation methods are currently provided: wizard creation and YAML creation. This article takes wizard creation as an example, and follows the steps below.

1. After entering a multicloud instance, in the left navigation bar, click __Resource Management__ -> __Multicloud ConfigMaps__ , and click the __Create Multicloud ConfigMaps__ button in the upper right corner.

    ![Create ConfigMap](https://docs.daocloud.io/daocloud-docs-images/docs/en/docs/kairship/images/config01.png)

2. On the __Create Multicloud ConfigMaps__ page, enter the name, select the namespace and other information, and click __OK__ .

    ![Fill ConfigMap](https://docs.daocloud.io/daocloud-docs-images/docs/en/docs/kairship/images/config02.png)

3. Return to the list of multicloud configuration items, and the newly created one will be the first one by default. Click __⋮__ on the right side of the list to edit YAML, update, export and delete configuration items.

    ![Update/Delete](https://docs.daocloud.io/daocloud-docs-images/docs/en/docs/kairship/images/config03.png)

    !!! note

        If you delete a configuration item, its related information will also be deleted, please operate with caution.

## YAML example

Here is an example YAML for a multicloud configuration item that you can use with a little modification.
