-
Fetch credentials for a running Anthos cluster on AWS.
This command updates a kubeconfig file with appropriate credentials and endpoint information to point kubectl at a specific Anthos cluster on AWS.
By default, credentials are written to
. You can provide an alternate path by setting theHOME/.kube/config
environment variable. IfKUBECONFIG
contains multiple paths, the first one is used.KUBECONFIG
This command enables switching to a specific cluster, when working with multiple clusters. It can also be used to access a previously created cluster from a new workstation.
By default, the command will configure kubectl to automatically refresh its credentials using the same identity as the gcloud command-line tool. If you are running kubectl as part of an application, it is recommended to use application default credentials. To configure a kubeconfig file to use application default credentials, set the
Google Cloud CLI property tocontainer/use_application_default_credentials
before running the command.true
See https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/kubectl for kubectl documentation.
