Description

It will be great if the application can auto provision the admin user.

Currently, on new deployments we have to manually login and create it.

This makes truly automating the deployment impossible, beside adding a job that can use the API to register the admin. I think the current approach for handling the provision of connections/sources can work for the admin user/s.

This eventually can be a nice feature to the helm chart which can make adoption greater as bootstraping an admin user is a standart practise in other popular alternatives.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing provisioning flow for connections and sources, then review how the Helm chart configures new deployments. Determine the supported way to bootstrap an admin user without manual login or an API registration job. Done should include an agreed provisioning path and Helm chart support for automated admin creation.
