NAME
       kubectl config set - Set an individual value in a kubeconfig file



SYNOPSIS
       kubectl config set [OPTIONS]



DESCRIPTION
       Set an individual value in a kubeconfig file.


       PROPERTY_NAME is a dot delimited name where each token represents
       either an attribute name or a map key.  Map keys may not contain dots.


       PROPERTY_VALUE is the new value you want to set. Binary fields such as
       'certificate-authority-data' expect a base64 encoded string unless the
       --set-raw-bytes flag is used.


       Specifying an attribute name that already exists will merge new fields
       on top of existing values.



OPTIONS
       --set-raw-bytes=false    When writing a []byte PROPERTY_VALUE, write
       the given string directly without base64 decoding.



OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS
       --as=""   Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a
       regular user or a service account in a namespace.


       --as-group=[]  Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be
       repeated to specify multiple groups.


       --as-uid=""    UID to impersonate for the operation.


       --azure-container-registry-config=""    Path to the file containing
       Azure container registry configuration information.


       --cache-dir="/home/username/.kube/cache"     Default cache directory


       --certificate-authority=""    Path to a cert file for the certificate
       authority


       --client-certificate=""  Path to a client certificate file for TLS


       --client-key=""     Path to a client key file for TLS


       --cluster=""   The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use


       --context=""   The name of the kubeconfig context to use


       --disable-compression=false   If true, opt-out of response compression
       for all requests to the server


       --insecure-skip-tls-verify=false   If true, the server's certificate
       will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections
       insecure


       --kubeconfig=""     use a particular kubeconfig file


       --match-server-version=false  Require server version to match client
       version


       -n, --namespace=""  If present, the namespace scope for this CLI
       request


       --password=""  Password for basic authentication to the API server


       --profile="none"    Name of profile to capture. One of
       (none|cpu|heap|goroutine|threadcreate|block|mutex)


       --profile-output="profile.pprof"   Name of the file to write the
       profile to


       --request-timeout="0"    The length of time to wait before giving up on
       a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding
       time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout
       requests.


       -s, --server=""     The address and port of the Kubernetes API server


       --tls-server-name=""     Server name to use for server certificate

       --user=""      The name of the kubeconfig user to use


       --username=""  Username for basic authentication to the API server


       --version=false     --version, --version=raw prints version information
       and quits; --version=vX.Y.Z... sets the reported version


       --warnings-as-errors=false    Treat warnings received from the server
       as errors and exit with a non-zero exit code



EXAMPLE

                # Set the server field on the my-cluster cluster to https://1.2.3.4
                kubectl config set clusters.my-cluster.server https://1.2.3.4

                # Set the certificate-authority-data field on the my-cluster cluster
                kubectl config set clusters.my-cluster.certificate-authority-data $(echo "cert_data_here" | base64 -i -)

                # Set the cluster field in the my-context context to my-cluster
                kubectl config set contexts.my-context.cluster my-cluster

                # Set the client-key-data field in the cluster-admin user using --set-raw-bytes option
