All pods in a workflow run with the service account specified in workflow.spec.serviceAccountName
, or if omitted,
the default
service account of the workflow's namespace. The amount of access which a workflow needs is dependent on
what the workflow needs to do. For example, if your workflow needs to deploy a resource, then the workflow's service
account will require 'create' privileges on that resource.
Warning: We do not recommend using the default
service account in production. It is a shared account so may have
permissions added to it you do not want. Instead, create a service account only for your workflow.
The minimum for the executor to function:
For >= v3.4:
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: Role
metadata:
name: executor
rules:
- apiGroups:
- argoproj.io
resources:
- workflowtaskresults
verbs:
- create
- patch
For <= v3.3 use.
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: Role
metadata:
name: executor
rules:
- apiGroups:
- ""
resources:
- pods
verbs:
- get
- patch
Warning: For many organizations, it may not be acceptable to give a workflow the pod patch
permission, see #3961
If you are not using the emissary, you'll need additional permissions. See executor for suitable permissions.
