Re: Jenkins Kubernetes plugin credentials for Google Kubernetes Engine cluster

[Carlos Sanchez]

No, that's google service accounts. You want to check Kubernetes service
accounts
For instance https://devopscube.com/kubernetes-api-access-service-account/

Re: Jenkins Kubernetes plugin credentials for Google Kubernetes Engine cluster

[samt88]

Thanks Carlos. I have searched the google for "google cloud service account 
token secret string" and I get some hits such as this page:
https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-account-keys

Is this the right place to start? Do you happen to know if there is a page 
that explains the step by step procedure? 
I am not familiar with issues surrounding tokens and secret strings. I am 
sure my question also helps others who would like to setup Jenkins on 
Google cloud without using helm or other utilities. Thanks.

Re: Jenkins Kubernetes plugin credentials for Google Kubernetes Engine cluster

[Carlos Sanchez]

you can create certificate credentials too, but the best way is to use a
service account token (secret string)

Jenkins Kubernetes plugin credentials for Google Kubernetes Engine cluster

[samt88]

I need to setup the Jenkins Kubernetes plugin to fire off slaves on demand. 
The top portion of the plugin requires us to provide two important values 
to the plugin. One is the value for the "Kubernetes  URL" field and the 
other is the value for the "Credentials" field. By providing these two 
values and clicking on the "Test Connection" button we should be able to 
verify that Jenkins can successfully connect to the cluster.

The Google Kubernetes Engine does not provide a username/password for 
cluster by default anymore.  The GKE page where we see the cluster 
credentials specifically says "Basic authentication for this cluster is 
disabled". I only see the value for "Cluster CA certificate" on this page.  
Does 
anyone have the step by step instructions on how I can use this certificate 
to configure the "Credentials" field of the Jenkins Kubernetes plugin to 
connect to the cluster? I have tried a few combinations but I have not been 
successful so far. Thanks.
