Show Kubernetes dashboard

This support article will walk through the steps necessary to bring up and access the Kubernetes Dashboard for the Email Signature Server cluster.

Azure CLI tools
Azure AKS CLI tools az aks install-cli
The Resource group name that contains the templafyemailsignatureserver Kuberenetes service

Log into your Azure subscription from a PowerShell or BASH shell on your local machine with az login
If necessary, set the default subscription to the one containing the Email Signature Server cluster:
az account set --subscription <subscription name or id>
Run kubectl version
- If you receive and error and do not have kubectl installed then run:
  az aks install-cli
  Note: Be sure to add the path returned to the system PATH environment variables as the install output instructs in option 2.
Open the Kubernetes Dashboard in your default browser:
Run the following commands; where <resource_group_name> is the group where the Email Signature Server Kubernetes service, templafyemailsignatureserver, is located:
az aks get-credentials --name templafyemailsignatureserver --resource-group <resource_group_name>

az aks browse --name templafyemailsignatureserver --resource-group <resource_group_name>

As of v1.10.1 of the Kubernetes dashboard or kubernetes v1.16+ the service account "kubernetes-dashboard" can no longer be used to retrieve resources due to a security fix in that release.

The initial screen presented requires a kubeconfig or token. Both options require resource permissions to display those resources in the dashboard.

Select 🔘Kubeconfig and then click Choose kubeconfig file ... to open the file selector
Select your kubeconfig file (defaults to $HOME/.kube/config)
