# Change deployment source

You can switch a deployment service from using an image built from your linked Git provider to an image hosted on a container registry at any time, and vice versa. You cannot change the image source for jobs.

## Change source via the deployment overview

You can open the edit deployment dialog from the service overview.

### Northflank

Change the source to an image built on Northflank from a Git repository. Select a build service and branch to deploy builds from, the deployment service will use the latest build from the branch.

### External image

Change the source to use an image from an external container registry. Enter the image path and your [registry credentials](run-an-image-from-a-container-registry#registry-credentials), if using a private image.
