Hey @paraniraja, thanks for raising this.

We implemented it intentionally so that users can sync the generated configuration into their clusters with ArgoCD (or other GitOps tools). This decision was made so that there are not two controllers applying the same configuration, and so that Cyclops doesn't both push the configuration to git and create a module which could lead to inconsistency in case one of the actions fails.

In case you want Cyclops to directly apply Modules to your cluster, you don't have to enable it to push configuration to git.

Let me know what you think. If you have a different use case, let me know, and we would gladly implement a different Module creation strategy :)

Intention is right argocd to sync with cluster, however feature is not working, page is showing error as mentioned in the description

Exactly, since the Module wasn't applied to the cluster, but just pushed to git, there is no module in the cluster to check. This is because the UI automatically redirects to the page for Module details.

What I had in mind for a fix is that, when a module configuration is pushed to git, the UI will redirect to the module list instead of the specific module, which wouldn't show an error.

Do you have any other solutions you would expect when a module is created on a git repo, or maybe something you would expect? If you agree with the approach above, I can open a PR for it and release it in the next version.

Thanks @paraniraja!
