Subscriptions

The subscription to Argo CD application events can be defined using notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.<trigger>.<service>: <recipient> annotation. For example, the following annotation subscribes two Slack channels to notifications about every successful synchronization of the Argo CD application:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
  annotations:
    notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.on-sync-succeeded.slack: my-channel1;my-channel2

The annotation key consists of following parts:

• on-sync-succeeded - trigger name
• slack - notification service name
• my-channel1;my-channel2 - a semicolon separated list of recipients

You can create subscriptions for all applications of an Argo CD project by adding the same annotation to the AppProject resource:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: AppProject
metadata:
  annotations:
    notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.on-sync-succeeded.slack: my-channel1;my-channel2

Default Subscriptions

The subscriptions might be configured globally in the argocd-notifications-cm ConfigMap using the subscriptions field. The default subscriptions are applied to all applications. The trigger and applications might be configured using the triggers and selector fields:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: argocd-notifications-cm
data:
  # Contains centrally managed global application subscriptions
  subscriptions: |
    # subscription for on-sync-status-unknown trigger notifications
    - recipients:
      - slack:test2
      - email:test@gmail.com
      triggers:
      - on-sync-status-unknown
    # subscription restricted to applications with matching labels only
    - recipients:
      - slack:test3
      selector: test=true
      triggers:
      - on-sync-status-unknown

If you want to use webhook in subscriptions, you need to store the custom webhook name in the subscription’s recipients field.

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: argocd-notifications-cm
data:
  service.webhook.<webhook-name>: |
    (snip)
  subscriptions: |
    - recipients:
      - <webhook-name>
      triggers:
      - on-sync-status-unknown
