🔹 1. Create a ServiceAccount

Retrieve initial password

Bind It to Argo CD Admin Role

kubectl -n argocd create rolebinding argocdinitial-admin-rbsecret --role=admin --serviceaccount=argocd:argocd-admin-sa

metadata:
  name: argocd-admin-token
  namespace: argocd
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/service-account.name: argocd-admin-sa
type: kubernetes.io/service-account-token

Apply it:

kubectl apply -f argocd-token.yaml

Wait & Retrieve the Token

It may take a few seconds for Kubernetes to populate the token. Then:

kubectl -n argocd describe secret argocd-admin-token

Check the address exposed and add in the /etc/hosts as argocd.da
Shell Command

o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d

connect to UI (admin and password)

see the address 

kubectl get ingress -n argocd

🧠 You must configure a DNS entry or /etc/hosts pointing argocd.da

...

(or whatever) with your ingress controller IP.

Change the password! the inital password wont work for long
