Hi @regicsolutions,

thanks for this suggestion! This Backstage instance is focused on the Operate First Community Cloud and it seems we don't have all the necessary facilities to deploy this. I think that makes configuring the backend part of this plugin impossible.

What is your desired usecase with this? What would you like to achieve by deploying kpt plugin here?

Current limitations I see here are:

• Operate First Community cloud doesn't have any centralized OIDC/auth provider providing OpenShift tokens for individual clusters
• The plugin seems to require fixed namespace selector which doesn't suite the multi-tenant nature of our clusters
• no config-sync deployed

I think it would be nice to experiment with this, however it doesn't seem to be fit our deployment method of 1 Backstage instance watching multitude of clusters where each cluster has their tenants isolated into team-owned namespaces.

If we can overcome these issues I think this plugin would be a nice addition here.
