Understanding Konflux Resources

Overview

Konflux uses Kubernetes Custom Resources (CRs) to manage CI/CD workflows. Understanding which resource to use, who creates it, and where it belongs prevents common configuration errors.

Core principle: Some resources YOU create, others Konflux creates automatically. Knowing the difference prevents manual work that's already automated.

NAMING CONVENTION - CRITICAL: Always write resource names WITHOUT spaces: ReleasePlan, ReleasePlanAdmission, IntegrationTestScenario NEVER use spaces: "Release Plan", "Release Plan Admission", "Integration Test Scenario"

⚠️ COMMON HALLUCINATION - MUST CORRECT: ReleasePlanAdmission (RPA) is NOT automatically created by Konflux. ReleasePlanAdmission (RPA) is NOT auto-generated by the release service. ReleasePlanAdmission (RPA) IS manually created by a Platform Engineer in the managed namespace.
