GCP Kubectl

Modified on Tue, 6 Jan at 10:41 AM

Overview

The GKE_Kubectl_Command step allows you to run kubectl commands directly against a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster without needing to manually configure authentication or kubeconfig files.

Configuration Fields

Field	Description	Example
Integration	The GCP integration/connection to use for authentication	`wiv-gcp`
Project	The GCP project containing your GKE cluster	`wiv-dev (wiv-dev)`
Location	The region or zone where your cluster is deployed	`us-central1`
Cluster Name	The name of your GKE cluster	`autopilot-cluster-1`
Kubectl Command	The kubectl command to execute	`get namespaces`

How to Use

Select your GCP integration from the dropdown
Choose the GCP project that contains your cluster
Enter the cluster's location (region for Autopilot/regional clusters, zone for zonal clusters)
Enter the cluster name
Type your kubectl command in the command field
Click Run Step

Output Format

The step returns a JSON object containing:

{  "cluster_name": "autopilot-cluster-1",  "location": "us-central1",  "output": "<kubectl command output>",  "project_id": "wiv-dev",  "status": "success" }

Example Commands

Command	Description
`get namespaces`	List all namespaces
`get pods -A`	List all pods across all namespaces
`get nodes`	List cluster nodes
`get deployments -n default`	List deployments in default namespace
`describe pod <pod-name> -n <namespace>`	Get details about a specific pod
`logs <pod-name> -n <namespace>`	View pod logs

Notes

The step handles GKE authentication automatically using the selected integration
Execution time varies based on the command (shown in the results header)
