ArgoCD Integration

The ArgoCD plugin surfaces GitOps application status inside KubeVision. You can see sync state, health, and last-applied revision for every ArgoCD application without leaving the dashboard.

info

The ArgoCD integration is planned for a future release. This page documents the intended design. The configuration keys are reserved but have no effect in the current version.

Planned Setup

plugins:
  argocd:
    enabled: true
    serverUrl: "https://argocd.example.com"
    # ArgoCD API token (read-only service account recommended)
    token: ""
    # Verify ArgoCD's TLS certificate
    tlsVerify: true

Planned Features

Sync Status per Application

A dedicated GitOps tab will appear on the cluster overview page, listing all ArgoCD applications with their current sync and health status.

Column	Description
Application	ArgoCD application name
Sync Status	Synced / OutOfSync / Unknown
Health	Healthy / Degraded / Progressing / Missing
Revision	Git commit SHA of the last applied revision
Last Synced	Timestamp of the most recent sync operation

Resource-level GitOps Badge

Resources managed by ArgoCD (i.e., those carrying the app.kubernetes.io/managed-by: argocd label) will display a small GitOps badge in the resource list and detail views.

Link to ArgoCD UI

Every ArgoCD application row will include a direct link that opens the corresponding application page in the ArgoCD web UI.

https://argocd.example.com/applications/<app-name>

Sync Trigger (Planned)

Future versions may allow triggering a manual sync directly from KubeVision. This will require a service account token with write permissions.

warning

Triggering syncs from KubeVision will be gated behind the argocd:sync permission atom in the RBAC system. Only users with at least the ops role will be able to initiate syncs.

Workaround Until Release

Until the plugin ships, you can link to ArgoCD manually:

1. Go to Settings → External Links
2. Add a link with pattern https://argocd.example.com/applications/{{app}}
3. The link will appear in the resource action bar for labeled resources
