Inputs

name	description	required	default
cluster_name	Name of the cluster for which to get credentials. This can be specified as a full resource name: projects/<project>/locations/<location>/clusters/<cluster> In which case the `project_id` and `location` inputs are optional. If only specified as a name: <cluster> then both the `project_id` and `location` may be required.	yes	—
location	Location (region or zone) in which the cluster resides. This value is required unless `cluster_name` is a full resource name.	no	—
project_id	Project ID where the cluster is deployed. If provided, this will override the project configured by previous steps or environment variables. If not provided, the project will be inferred from the environment, best-effort.	no	—
context_name	Name to use when creating the `kubectl` context. If not specified, the default value is `gke_<project>_<location>_<cluster>`.	no	—
namespace	Name of the Kubernetes namespace to use within the context.	no	—
use_auth_provider	Set this to true to use the Google Cloud auth plugin in `kubectl` instead of inserting a short-lived access token.	no	false
use_internal_ip	Set this to true to use the internal IP address for the cluster endpoint. This is mostly used with private GKE clusters.	no	false
use_connect_gateway	Set this to true to use the [Connect Gateway endpoint](https://cloud.google.com/anthos/multicluster-management/gateway) to connect to cluster.	no	false
use_dns_based_endpoint	Set this true to use [DNS-based endpoint](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/concepts/network-isolation#dns-based_endpoint) to connect to the cluster.	no	false
fleet_membership_name	Fleet membership name to use for generating Connect Gateway endpoint, of the form: projects/<project>/locations/<location>/memberships/<membership> This only applies if `use_connect_gateway` is true. Defaults to auto discovery if empty.	no	—
quota_project_id	Project ID from which to pull quota. The caller must have `serviceusage.services.use` permission on the project. If unspecified, this defaults to the project of the authenticated principle. This is an advanced setting, most users should leave this blank.	no	—
