Argo Workflow + Spark operator + App logs not generated
Am in very early stages of exploring Argo with Spark operator to run Spark samples on the minikube setup on my EC2 instance.
Following are the resources details, not sure why am not able to see the spark app logs.

To dig deep I tried all the steps that's listed on https://dev.to/crenshaw_dev/how-to-debug-an-argo-workflow-31ng yet could not get app logs.
Basically when I run these examples am expecting spark app logs to be printed - in this case output of following Scala example
Interesting when I list PODS, I was expecting to see driver pods and executor pods but always see only one POD and it has above logs as in the image attached. Please help me to understand why logs are not generated and how can I get it?

As Michael mentioned in his answer, Argo Workflows does not know how other CRDs (such as SparkApplication that you used) work and thus could not pull the logs from the pods created by that particular CRD.
However, you can add the label workflows.argoproj.io/workflow: {{workflow.name}} to the pods generated by SparkApplication to let Argo Workflows know and then use argo logs -c <container-name> to pull the logs from those pods.
You can find an example here but Kubeflow CRD but in your case you'll want to add labels to the executor and driver to your SparkApplication CRD in the resource template: https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/blob/master/examples/k8s-resource-log-selector.yaml
Argo Workflows' resource templates (like your spark-groupby template) are simplistic. The Workflow controller is running kubectl create, and that's where its involvement in the SparkApplication ends.
The logs you're seeing from the Argo Workflow pod describe the kubectl create process. Your resource is written to a temporary yaml file and then applied to the cluster.

To view the logs generated by your SparkApplication, you'll need to follow the Spark docs. I'm not familiar, but I'm guessing the application gets run in a Pod somewhere. If you can find that pod, you should be able to view the logs with
kubectl logs.It would be really cool if Argo Workflows could pull Spark logs into its UI. But building a generic solution would probably be prohibitively difficult.
Update:
Check Yuan's answer. There's a way to pull the Spark logs into the Workflows CLI!
