Automate container image tagging and GitOps promotion by building images in CI, pushing immutable tags, and updating the GitOps repository values files to trigger automated ArgoCD sync across environments.

Immutable tagging in a GitOps CI/CD pipeline requires pushing container images with a commit SHA or semver tag instead of moving tags like latest, ensuring ArgoCD reconciles predictable application states.

Yes, this Ankra CI/CD automation supports both GitHub Actions and GitLab CI pipelines, providing practical examples to build, push, and promote container images across environments.

Your CI/CD pipeline needs a writable GitOps repository because CI updates values files with new immutable image tags, allowing Ankra and ArgoCD to detect and reconcile the change without direct cluster operations.

Triggering ArgoCD sync from a CI pipeline requires registry write permissions to push images and write access to the GitOps repository to update immutable tags, enforcing automated Ankra reconciliation.
