Are username and password values required?

[rootd00d]

The documentation says that the following is required --

controllerInfo:
  url: <controller-url>
  account: <controller-account>
  username: <controller-username>
  password: <controller-password>
  accessKey: <controller-accesskey>

Are the username and password fields really required, or is the access key sufficient, or vice-versa?

i found this in documentation about username and password setting for controller : Required only when auto-instrumentation is enabled.

Reference is on this page : https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO21/Install+the+Cluster+Agent+with+Helm+Charts

It makes sense knowing that helm deployment works well with only the accessKey, it would be nice to have this information at the helm installation steps for a better understanding.

the chart fails dramatically when auto-instrumentation is enabled and username and password is not set.

We're using this chart in a gitops way (rendering out the chart and then utilizing kustomize with argocd) the secret that this generates actually breaks our deployment so I'd like to see a way to override this section and disable the auto generated secret (we use external-secrets or, in the past, a CSI driver to sync this secret down from an actual secret store)
