So I think I've identified 2 problems: - operator does not support the dispatchUpstreamAddr flag, so it ignores it. Hence it didn't work for you - operator sets

SPICEDB_CLUSTER_DISPATCH_ENABLED

which disables the dispatch server, but

SPICEDB_DISPATCH_UPSTREAM_ADDR

which enables dispatching. This is a bug and it should be set to empty string. The only option that I'm aware of right now is you will have to modify the

Deployment

, by changing the environment variable

SPICEDB_DISPATCH_UPSTREAM_ADDR

to empty.
