# Updating Cert Data
## Tap to Open
When looking at your Locker, **Tap a Cert** to open the **Edit Cert** screen.
## Update Text Fields
At the moment, CertLocker does not support changing the **Type** of a Cert once created**.**
For Certs of the type "Other," you can update the **Name, Description**, **CEs Earned**, and **CEs Required** fields, and your changes will be autosaved. For these Certs, you can also use the Apply Training button to assign CEs earned in trainings logged in CertLocker to this Cert.
{% hint style="info" %}
For Certs with defined **Renewal Requirements**, the CEs Earned & Required fields do not appear, nor does the Apply Training button. Instead, Cert Renewal Progress details are accessed and managed by tapping on the Recertification Progress bar.
{% endhint %}
Cert with defined requirements (eg. EMT-B)
Cert without defined requirements (eg. Other)
## Update Date Fields
Tap on **Certification Date** or **Expiration Date** to call up a date picker and make changes. When you confirm your changes, they'll be saved to the database. To change the **Expiration Date** to Never, tap the **Cancel Icon,** and the change to Never will be saved.
## Update Expiration Reminders
To change when you'll be reminded about approaching Expiration Dates, tap the Expiration Reminders expandable card to reveal the UI for setting a value and unit.
## Mark as Private
To change the privacy setting for this Cert, simply check or uncheck the Mark as Private checkbox.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.certlocker.app/my-certs/updating-cert-data.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
