Unable to access Kubernetes Dashboard via kubeconfig

3/4/2018

I'm trying to access Kubernetes Dashboard via a kubeconfig file but I don't know how to create a kubeconfig file to access it.

I can access it by a token way but I want to access it by a kubeconfig file, too.

thanks

Can you explain what you mean when you say you can access it by token but not through a kubeconfig? Kubeconfigs simply store authentication information in them, which can include authentication via a token. Assuming the rest of your kubeconfig file is populated, you just need to modify it so that your user information contains the token, like so:

users:
- name: my-user
  user:
    token: <token-here>
