Install Kong Gateway Operator using Helm:
helm upgrade --install kong-operator kong/kong-operator -n kong-system \ --create-namespace \ --set image.tag=2.0.2 \ --set env.ENABLE_CONTROLLER_KONNECT=trueCopied!
If you want cert-manager to issue and rotate the admission and conversion webhook certificates, install cert-manager to your cluster and enable cert-manager integration by passing the following argument while installing:
--set global.webhooks.options.certManager.enabled=true
If you do not enable this, the chart will generate and inject self-signed certificates automatically. We recommend enabling cert-manager to manage the lifecycle of these certificates.

kubectl -n kong-system wait --for=condition=Available=true --timeout=120s deployment/kong-operator-kong-operator-controller-manager
