Once Dashboard has been installed in your cluster it can be accessed in a few different ways. Note that this document does not describe all possible ways of accessing cluster applications. In case of any error while trying to access Dashboard, please first read our FAQ and check closed issues. In most cases errors are caused by cluster configuration issues.
This document only describes the basic way of accessing Kubernetes Dashboard. If you have modified the default configuration in any way, it might not work.
Use kubectl port-forward
and access Dashboard with a simple URL. Depending on the chosen installation method you might need to access different service.
For Helm-based installation when kong
is being installed by our Helm chart simply run:
kubectl -n kubernetes-dashboard port-forward svc/kubernetes-dashboard-kong-proxy 8443:443
Now access Dashboard at: https://localhost:8443.
Use kubectl proxy
and access Dashboard with a simple URL.
kubectl proxy --port=8001
Now access Dashboard at: http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard-kong-proxy:443/proxy/
