Submit a workflow to a namespace - Container Compute Service

By default, your workflows are submitted to the argo namespace. If you want to submit workflows to another namespace to isolate resources and enforce permission control, you need to grant permissions to the default or desired ServiceAccount.

You can create an authorization file to grant permissions to the ServiceAccount of a namespace. Then, you can submit workflows to the namespace.

Create a namespace named test.
```
kubectl create ns test
```

Create an authorization file named role-rolebinding.yaml.

Note

In this example, the default ServiceAccount is authorized. If other ServiceAccounts are specified for your workflow, grant permissions to these ServiceAccounts.

      This is the minimum recommended permissions needed if you want to use the agent, e.g. for HTTP or plugin templates.

      If <= v3.2 you must replace `workflowtasksets/status` with `patch workflowtasksets`.

Deploy the YAML file to complete authorization.

kubectl apply -f role-rolebinding.yaml -n test

Expected output:

role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/agent created
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/artifactgc created
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/executor created
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/submit-workflow-template created
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/workflow-manager created
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/agent-default created
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/artifactgc-default created
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/executor-default created
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/workflow-manager-default created

Create an application based on the following content: The application is named helloworld-workflow.yaml in this example.

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Workflow                  # new type of k8s spec.
metadata:
  generateName: hello-world-    # name of the workflow spec.
spec:
  entrypoint: main          # invoke the main template.
  templates:
    - name: main              # name of the template.
      container:
        image: mirrors-ssl.aliyuncs.com/busybox:latest
        command: [ echo ]
        args: [ "hello world" ]

Run the following command to submit the workflow to the test namespace.
```
argo submit helloworld-workflow.yaml -n test
```
