+There are two places where users might need to define authentication when building images. Authentication to a container registry is the most common one, but also users might have the need to define authentications for pulling source-code from Git. Overall, the authentication is done via the definion of [secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/) in which the require sensitive data will be stored.

+## Build Secrets Annotation
+
+Users need to add an annotation `build.build.dev/referenced.secret: "true"` to a build secret so that build controller can decide to take a reconcile action when a secret event (`create`, `update` and `delete`) happens. Below is a secret example with build annotation:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+data:
+  .dockerconfigjson: xxxxx
+kind: Secret
+metadata:
+  annotations:
+    build.build.dev/referenced.secret: "true"
+  name: secret-docker
+type: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson
+```
+
+This annotation will help us filter secrets which are not referenced on a Build instance. That means if a secret doesn't have this annotation, then although event happens on this secret, Build controller will not reconcile. Being able to reconcile on secrets events allow the Build controller to re-trigger validations on the Build configuration, allowing users to understand if a dependency is missing.
+
+If you are using `kubectl` command create secrets, then you can first create build secret using `kubectl create secret` command and annotate this secret using `kubectl annotate secrets`. Below is an example:
+
+```sh
+kubectl -n ${namespace} create secret docker-registry example-secret --docker-server=${docker-server} --docker-username="${username}" --docker-password="${password}" [email protected]
+kubectl -n ${namespace} annotate secrets example-secret build.build.dev/referenced.secret='true'
+```

 _Notes:_ When generating a secret to access docker hub, the `REGISTRY_HOST` value should be `https://index.docker.io/v1/`, the username is the Docker ID.
