Chat & Banner

Chat & Banner settings allow you to add a support chat link and display banner messages in your Argo CD dashboard. All settings can be located by navigating to Argo CD → your instance → Settings → Chat & Banner.

Chat​

The Chat feature adds a help link to your Argo CD dashboard, typically used to direct users to a support channel.

To configure the chat link:

  1. Enter the support URL (e.g., your Slack channel or help desk URL).

  2. Enter a Message to display as the link text (defaults to "Chat now!" if not specified).

  3. Click Save.

The Banner feature displays a message at the top of every page in the Argo CD UI. This is useful for announcements such as maintenance windows or important notices. For more details, see the Argo CD Banners documentation.

To configure a banner:

  1. Enter the Message to display.

  2. Optionally, enter a URL to make the entire banner text a clickable link.

  3. Optionally, toggle Permanent to prevent users from dismissing the banner.

  4. Click Save.

note
  • You can have banner content without a URL, but not the other way around.
  • You can have either a permanent banner or a closeable banner, but not both.
  • Permanent banners display only one line of text, so keep the message short.
  • Every time the banner is updated, users who previously dismissed it will see it again.
