Kubeconfig

What is Kubeconfig?

Kubeconfig is a small YAML file that incorporates either the combination of a username and password, or a secure token to provide access to and authentication for the cluster. When this file is interpreted programmatically, it temporarily eliminates the need for the Kubernetes client to seek a medium for interactive authentication. It creates information about a cluster, its users, related namespaces, and provides an authentication mechanism.

In this section, we provide an Introduction to kubeconfig file itself, explain how to download the kubeconfig file, and Obtain kubeconfig with qbert API.
