| - if you encounter an error like "Unable to connect to the server: No valid id-token, and cannot refresh without refresh-token" when running your kubectl, you will need to log back in via https://k8s.slac.stanford.edu/<project>, re-executing the commands in the second box. This is because our OIDC (dex) implementation does not and cannot generate refresh tokens from our SAML2 (windows ADFS) backend. (Actually, only the ``set-credentials`` command is needed, but it doesn't hurt to execute them all.) | ||

| Kubernetes secrets are usually held in Vault (vault.slac.stanford.edu). The vault command is available on USDF interactive nodes. You may need to activate it with ``module load vault``. Then login using the commands ``export VAULT_ADDR=https://vault.slac.stanford.edu; vault login -method=ldap`` with your SLAC Windows password. You can then use ``vault kv list -mount=secret PATH`` and ``vault kv get -mount=secret PATH/TO/SECRET`` to access secrets for which you have permission. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Guessing what PATH may be another minor obstacle, and it looks like PATH is optional for list. maybe change it to kv list -mount=secret [PATH]?, or mention that PATH starts with rubin/?
