Auto generate access token

[mike-serchenia]

Hi

is there a way to autogenerate user access token?

for example instead of running manually argocd account generate-token --account autouser we can set some parameter during installation and have that token accessible from k8s secret

Is there a way to manually insert (Declarative way) the token value in one account?

When I generate a token (from UI), in Secret argocd-secret appears only:
accounts.<account_name>.tokens: [{"id":"cbbc0bdc-...","iat":1692903744}]

After studying ArgoCD's code a little bit, I was able to figure out how this mechanism works.

Once you generate a token for an account, in any Argo instance, all you have to do, to make this token works in another Argo instance (another cluster, for example) is to have the secret argocd-secret with the same values like below:

• accounts.<account_name>.tokens
• server.secretkey

you can use the helm chart values.yaml to add it
