2.3.4. Customizing the project request message

Procedure

1. Edit the project configuration resource using the web console or CLI.

   • Using the web console:

     1. Navigate to the Administration Cluster Settings page.
     2. Click Configuration to view all configuration resources.
     3. Find the entry for Project and click Edit YAML.

   • Using the CLI:

     1. Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

     2. Edit the project.config.openshift.io/cluster resource:

        $ oc edit project.config.openshift.io/cluster

2. Update the spec section to include the projectRequestMessage parameter and set the value to your custom message:

   Project configuration resource with custom project request message

   apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
   kind: Project
   metadata:
   # ...
   spec:
     projectRequestMessage: <message_string>
   # ...

   For example:

   apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
   kind: Project
   metadata:
   # ...
   spec:
     projectRequestMessage: To request a project, contact your system administrator at projectname@example.com.
   # ...

3. After you save your changes, attempt to create a new project as a developer or service account that is unable to self-provision projects to verify that your changes were successfully applied.
