ODF presigned URL limitation

Solutions for presigned URL limitations with OpenShift Data Foundation on OpenShift clusters below 4.19.

Description

When using OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF) as the objectstore on OpenShift cluster versions < 4.19, CORS cannot be configured. This limitation can prevent Automation Suite services from working correctly with ODF buckets.

If you attempt to modify the presigned URL configuration after the initial installation, the installer blocks the change and shows the following error:

cannot change presigned url configuration after initial installation

Solution

To address the issue, you must disable presigned URL usage globally by adding the following flag to your input.json file:

"disable_presigned_url": true

If the change occurs after installation and the installer prevents the update, take the following steps:

1. Run the following command to locate the secret:

   oc get secret service-cluster-configurations -n uipath -o yaml
   

2. Update the DISABLE_PRESIGNED_URL key in the secret to the base64-encoded value of true (dHJ1ZQ==).
3. Add the following flag in your input.json file:

   "disable_presigned_url": true
   

4. Re-run the installer.
