Transport Layer Security

v2.8 and after

If you're running Argo Server you have three options with increasing transport security (note - you should also be running authentication):

Default configuration

v2.8 - 2.12

Defaults to Plain Text

v3.0 and after

Defaults to Encrypted if cert is available

Argo image/deployment defaults to Encrypted with a self-signed certificate which expires after 365 days.

Plain Text

Recommended for: development.

Everything is sent in plain text.

Start Argo Server with the --secure=false (or ARGO_SECURE=false) flag, e.g.:

export ARGO_SECURE=false
argo server --secure=false

To secure the UI you may front it with a HTTPS proxy.

Encrypted

Recommended for: development and test environments.

You can encrypt connections without any real effort.

Start Argo Server with the --secure flag, e.g.:

argo server --secure

It will start with a self-signed certificate that expires after 365 days.

Run the CLI with --secure (or ARGO_SECURE=true) and --insecure-skip-verify (or ARGO_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY=true).

argo --secure --insecure-skip-verify list
export ARGO_SECURE=true
export ARGO_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY=true
argo --secure --insecure-skip-verify list

Tip: Don't forget to update your readiness probe to use HTTPS. To do so, edit your argo-server Deployment's readinessProbe spec:

readinessProbe:
    httpGet: 
        scheme: HTTPS

Encrypted and Verified

Recommended for: production environments.

Run your HTTPS proxy in front of the Argo Server. You'll need to set-up your certificates (this is out of scope of this documentation).

Start Argo Server with the --secure flag, e.g.:

argo server --secure

As before, it will start with a self-signed certificate that expires after 365 days.

Run the CLI with --secure (or ARGO_SECURE=true) only.

argo --secure list
export ARGO_SECURE=true
argo list

TLS Min Version

Set TLS_MIN_VERSION to be the minimum TLS version to use. This is v1.2 by default.

This must be one of these int values.

Version Value
v1.0 769
v1.1 770
v1.2 771
v1.3 772
