Container Service for Kubernetes:Enable Argo Server for a workflow cluster

Last Updated:Dec 10, 2025

Enable Argo Server for a workflow cluster. This lets you use the Argo Server API to automate workflow submissions or the open source Argo UI to manage workflows. This topic describes how to enable Argo Server for a workflow cluster.

Prerequisites

  • By default, only the Alibaba Cloud account and the Resource Access Management (RAM) user that created the workflow cluster can use command-line interface (CLI) tools, such as kubectl and Argo, to manage the cluster. To allow other RAM users to access the workflow cluster, you must first grant them the required permissions. For more information, see Grant permissions to RAM users.

  • By default, Argo Server uses Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) private IP addresses to expose its services. Ensure that your terminal can access the private IP addresses in the VPC.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the ACK One console. In the left-side navigation pane, choose .

  2. On the cluster details page, click the Basic Information tab. On the Workflow Console (Argo) card, turn on the switch.

  3. Click Enable Internet Access and Configure Access Control. Enable public network access and add the IP address of your local machine to the whitelist.

  4. Click the Workflow Console (Argo) card to access the Argo UI.

  5. Under single sign-on, click LOGIN.

  6. In the navigation pane on the left, click the Workflow icon workflow and set NAMESPACE to default to view the workflows in the default namespace.
