Problem:

Many application teams do not have cluster-admin access to their OpenShift clusters and they operate within a constrained shared environment managed by the platform team. In some cases, they do not have access to create namespaces either and they should request a namespace to be created for them.

Customers using OpenShift Dedicated do not have cluster-admin access to the OSD clusters either and rather given a "dedicated-admin" role which is limited to certain administrative tasks.

Goal:

Enable application teams that do NOT have cluster-admin access to the OpenShift cluster to use kam to bootstrap a GitOps process across the namespaces they have access to.

Acceptance criteria:

• Users with standard namespace privileges (non cluster-admin) can use kam to configure a GitOps process across namespaces they have access to.
• Users can use existing namespaces that are created for them with kam
