Access Your Cluster from Terminal

To access your cluster from your terminal, follow these steps:

You will need to install the Kubernetes CLI (kubectl).

You probably don't need to scroll far, you'll find instructions right at the top for common platforms: Linux, macOS, Windows.

If you haven't already, click the Download Kubeconfig button in the cluster details page.

Download Kubeconfig

export KUBECONFIG=PATH_TO_YOUR_KUBECONFIG_FILE

You may now access your cluster using the kubectl command ! Try it out:

kubectl get nodes

If you are using a single node cluster, you need to allow scheduling on the node.

kubectl taint nodes --all node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane-

Next Steps

Add a load balancer to your cluster to allow public access to your cluster.
