Question

Hi guys,
 is it possible to use the task of HelmDeploy@0 without defining a service connection on Azure DevOps?

I am using an openshift environment (CaaS) and I can't define the service connection since the kubeconfig configuration expires after a while.
I have seen that I could update the service connection definite on Azure DevOps using the Azure DevOps Api, but I was wondering if I could perform something different like getting the kubeconfig in a string and setting the content of the kubernetesServiceConnection to the specific parameter containing such content, maybe filled by a previous step of the task.

Is there any advice about that?
Thank you
