ignoreDifferences or ignoreApplicationDifferences with ApplicationSets

[AndreCbrera]

Hello there !

I have been trying apply a ignoreApplicationDifferences from my applicationSet.

example:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: ApplicationSet
metadata:
  name: devops-apps
  namespace: argocd
spec:
  goTemplate: true
  generators:
  - list:
      elements:
      - appName: jenkins-qa
        url: https://charts.jenkins.io/
        chartName: jenkins
        revision: 5.1.21
        values:
          path: jenkins
      - appName: nexus-qa
        url: https://stevehipwell.github.io/helm-charts/
        chartName: nexus3
        revision: 4.45.0
        values:
          path: nexus
  template:
    metadata:
      name: '{{.appName}}-app'
    spec:
      project: default
      .......
  ignoreApplicationDifferences:
    - name: jenkins-qa-app
      jsonPointers:
        - /data 

I tried to apply the ignoreApplicationDifferences to my jenkins-qa-app but the OutOfSync persist in argocd :

I need apply this in different way ? Is useful for this ?

thanks

I think you also need to specific group/kind as well

Yes, I did it, adding this section you can approach and ignoring the differences

  ignoreDifferences:
  - group: ""
    kind: Secret
    name: jenkins
    jsonPointers:
    - /data
