Getting Started with ArgoCD
Obtaining the initial admin password for Argo CD
Option 1: Using the Argo CD CLI
If you have the argocd CLI installed, you can simply run:
argocd admin initial-password -n argocd
Option 2: Using kubectl
Run this command (assuming Argo CD is installed in the argocd namespace):
kubectl -n argocd get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d
It’s highly recommended to set a new secure password after logging in
