+## Mask sensitive Annotations on Secrets
+
+An optional comma-separated list of `metadata.annotations` keys can be configured with `resource.sensitive.mask.annotations` to mask their values in UI/CLI on Secrets.

+```yaml

 ## Auto respect RBAC for controller
 
 Argocd controller can be restricted from discovering/syncing specific resources using just controller rbac, without having to manually configure resource exclusions.
