Configure Argo CD for Upbound Cloud

To configure argoCD to work with UBC, we need to conifgue it to ignore resources UBC blcoks List on. The argocd-cm ConfigMap in the argocd namespace is where this is configured. The following manifest should be applied to argocd namespace (Replace cluster URL with the URL in your kubeconfig for the UBC cluster, add multiple UBC cluster URLs if configuring multiple):

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  labels:
    app.kubernetes.io/name: argocd-cm
    app.kubernetes.io/part-of: argocd
  name: argocd-cm
  namespace: argocd

  resource.exclusions: |
    - apiGroups:
      - ""

Add UBC cluster to argoCD

Fill cluster url and auth token and then apply to argocd namespace.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: ubc-secret
  namespace: argocd
  labels:
    argocd.argoproj.io/secret-type: cluster
type: Opaque
stringData:
  name: ubc
  server: <Replace here with the url to UBC cluster from kubeconfig>
  config: |
    {
      "bearerToken": "<Replace here with token field in kubeconfig for UBC context>",
      "tlsClientConfig": {
        "insecure": false,
        "caData": ""
      }
    }
