DOCUMENTATION>AWX Operator - How do I customize the initial setup within AWX 'instance'

I have installed AWX in Kubernetes (microk8s) using the operator instructions.
Once I login to the dashboard I notice that certain hosts, inventories, templates, teams etc are pre-defined. For example, under Dashboard I see 1 Host and then under that localhost.

I see in the operator document that settings such as admin account/credential and so forth can be configured as resources with ‘awx-demo.yaml’ (which is added to the kustomize.yaml after installing the operator.

I am unable to locate in the documentation any information on how override the additional settings (host, inventories, orgs, etc) using code: that is how to configure the AWX ‘instance’ using a programmatic API or (hopefully) a Ansible playbook that I configure (somehow) under spec: in the ‘instance yaml’ (e.g., awx-demo.yaml), or any other method

Hi Rick,

I have used the awx.awx ansible collection to manage the config you are talking about.

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/awx/awx/index.html

We have created additional roles that do this for us, but those are being run separately from the deployment of the operator.

Hope that helps!
