Error parsing data: line 49: key `name’ is in conflict with line 2fd

Were you able to resolve your issue? Looking through the YAML I see an empty “name” key under serviceAccount, and then two “name” keys under inputs. I don’t think the duplication should matter, but if you only run with one does it work?

Hi,
it has been resolved with the new development made
