.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(DEPRECATED)\fR This command is deprecated. See
https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes\-engine/multi\-cloud/docs/aws/deprecations/deprecation\-announcement
for more details.


Fetch credentials for a running Anthos cluster on AWS.

This command updates a kubeconfig file with appropriate credentials and endpoint
information to point kubectl at a specific Anthos cluster on AWS.

By default, credentials are written to \f5\fIHOME/.kube/config\fR\fR. You can
provide an alternate path by setting the \f5\fIKUBECONFIG\fR\fR environment
variable. If \f5\fIKUBECONFIG\fR\fR contains multiple paths, the first one is
used.

This command enables switching to a specific cluster, when working with multiple
clusters. It can also be used to access a previously created cluster from a new
workstation.

By default, the command will configure kubectl to automatically refresh its
credentials using the same identity as the gcloud command\-line tool. If you are
running kubectl as part of an application, it is recommended to use application
default credentials (https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/production).
To configure a kubeconfig file to use application default credentials, set the
\f5\fIcontainer/use_application_default_credentials\fR\fR Google Cloud CLI
property (https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/properties) to \f5\fItrue\fR\fR
before running the command.

See https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes\-engine/docs/kubectl for kubectl
documentation.
