# Edit remote content settings

You can edit settings for remote content folders and files after creation.

## Editable settings

The following remote content settings can be updated:

- **Git provider**: Change to a different provider (GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket)
- **Repository and branch**: Switch to a different repository or branch
- **Content path**: Change the folder or file being synced from the source repository
- **Auto-sync**: Enable or disable automatic synchronization
- **Auto-merge**: Enable or disable automatic merging of sync pull requests
- **URL and interval** (for URL sources): Update the source URL or sync frequency

Update these settings in the Redocly platform either in the file tree of the editor, or on the **Remote content** page.

## Non-editable settings

You cannot update the following settings:

- **Mount path**: The destination folder or file location in your project

To change the mount path, add a new remote content entry with the desired path, then delete the previous one.

## Edit remote content

Edit settings on existing remote content from either the file tree of the editor or the Remote content page in Redocly.

To edit remote content settings:

1. From the file tree of the editor, right-click the remote content (folders and files with remote content have a cloud icon), then select **Edit**.

  Alternatively, from the Remote content page, select the options menu on the far right side of the table row, then select **Edit**.
2. Modify the settings as needed.
  The available settings depend on your content source type:

    - **Git sources**: Change provider, repository, branch, folder/file path, auto-sync, or auto-merge settings.
    - **URL sources**: Change the source URL, sync interval, auto-sync, or auto-merge settings.
    - **CI/CD sources**: Change auto-merge settings.
3. Select **Save** or **Next** to apply changes.
  The platform creates a pull request with your changes.
4. Review and merge the pull request to apply the updated settings.
