Unable to install and enable plugins from helm chart

[yagelkt]

I installed apisix successfully helm chart with ArgoCd application.

I then tried to add the "limit-count" plugin, but when I open the dashboard I don't see this plugin.

I can add this plugin manually.

This is the Apisix application yaml I used:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
  name: loadbalancer-apisix
  namespace: argocd
  annotations:
    argocd.argoproj.io/sync-wave: "1"
  finalizers:
  - resources-finalizer.argocd.argoproj.io
spec:
  destination:
    namespace: api-gw
    server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
  project: default
  source:
    chart: apisix
    repoURL: https://charts.apiseven.com
    targetRevision: v2.1.0
    helm:
      releaseName: apisix
      values: |
        service:
          type: LoadBalancer
          annotations:
            service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-internal: "true"
            service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-type: "nlb"
            service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-backend-protocol: tls 
            service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-additional-resource-tags: Environment=dev
        ingress-controller:
          enabled: "true"
          config:
            apisix:
              serviceNamespace: "api-gw"
              adminAPIVersion: v3

        plugins: ["limit-count"]
        
        pluginAttrs: {
          "limit-count": {
            "count": 2,
            "time_window": 60,
            "rejected_code": 503,
            "key": "remote_addr",
            "policy": "redis",
            "redis_host": "apisix-redis-master.default.svc.cluster.local",
            "redis_port": 6379,
            "redis_password": "my_pass",
            "redis_database": 1,
            "redis_timeout": 1001
          }
        }
            
        dashboard:
          enabled: "true"
  syncPolicy:
    automated: {}
    syncOptions:
    - CreateNamespace=true

Any idea why it didn't work? (I don't think it has anything to do with argocd - it just a normal helm installation).

I also tried to edit the configmap to enable the plugin, but it didn't work also:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: apisix-configmap
  namespace: api-gw
data:
  config.yaml: |
    plugins:
      limit-count:
        enable: true
        config:
          count: 100
