CfnAddon

The name of the add-on.

The name of your cluster.

The version of the add-on.

The configuration values that you provided.

The namespace configuration for the addon. This specifies the Kubernetes namespace where the addon is installed.

An array of EKS Pod Identity associations owned by the add-on. Each association maps a role to a service account in a namespace in the cluster. For more information, see [Attach an IAM Role to an Amazon EKS add-on using EKS Pod Identity](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/add-ons-iam.html) in the *Amazon EKS User Guide* .

Specifying this option preserves the add-on software on your cluster but Amazon EKS stops managing any settings for the add-on. If an IAM account is associated with the add-on, it isn't removed.

How to resolve field value conflicts for an Amazon EKS add-on. Conflicts are handled based on the value you choose: - *None* – If the self-managed version of the add-on is installed on your cluster, Amazon EKS doesn't change the value. Creation of the add-on might fail. - *Overwrite* – If the self-managed version of the add-on is installed on your cluster and the Amazon EKS default value is different than the existing value, Amazon EKS changes the value to the Amazon EKS default value. - *Preserve* – This is similar to the NONE option. If the self-managed version of the add-on is installed on your cluster Amazon EKS doesn't change the add-on resource properties. Creation of the add-on might fail if conflicts are detected. This option works differently during the update operation. For more information, see [`UpdateAddon`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/APIReference/API_UpdateAddon.html) . If you don't currently have the self-managed version of the add-on installed on your cluster, the Amazon EKS add-on is installed. Amazon EKS sets all values to default values, regardless of the option that you specify.

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an existing IAM role to bind to the add-on's service account. The role must be assigned the IAM permissions required by the add-on. If you don't specify an existing IAM role, then the add-on uses the permissions assigned to the node IAM role. For more information, see [Amazon EKS node IAM role](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/create-node-role.html) in the *Amazon EKS User Guide* . > To specify an existing IAM role, you must have an IAM OpenID Connect (OIDC) provider created for your cluster. For more information, see [Enabling IAM roles for service accounts on your cluster](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/enable-iam-roles-for-service-accounts.html) in the *Amazon EKS User Guide* .

The metadata that you apply to the add-on to assist with categorization and organization. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define. Add-on tags do not propagate to any other resources associated with the cluster.
