    1. create SSM SecureString Parameter `/cdk-accelerator/pipeline-git-info` in `pipelineEnv` region of `pipelineEnv` account. This parameter contains GitHub owner name, repository name (`cdk-aws-observability-accelerator`) and branch (`main`) which will be used as source for CodePipeline. [`cdk-aws-observability-accelerator`](https://github.com/aws-observability/cdk-aws-observability-accelerator) repository should be available in this GitHub source, ideally through forking.

    2. create secret `github-ssh-key` in `monitoringEnv` region of `monitoringEnv` account. This secret must contain GitHub SSH private key as a JSON structure containing fields `sshPrivateKey` and `url` in AWS Secrets Manager. This will be used by ArgoCD addon to authenticate against any GitHub repository (private or public). This secret is expected to be defined in the region where the pipeline will be deployed to. For more information on SSH credentials setup see [ArgoCD Secrets Support](https://aws-quickstart.github.io/cdk-eks-blueprints/addons/argo-cd/#secrets-support).
