SYNOPSIS

11       kubectl certificate approve [OPTIONS]
12

14

DESCRIPTION

16       Approve a certificate signing request.
17
18
19       kubectl  certificate  approve  allows a cluster admin to approve a cer‐
20       tificate signing request (CSR). This action tells a certificate signing
21       controller  to issue a certificate to the requestor with the attributes
22       requested in the CSR.
23
24
25       SECURITY NOTICE: Depending on the requested attributes, the issued cer‐
26       tificate  can potentially grant a requester access to cluster resources
27       or to authenticate as a requested identity.  Before  approving  a  CSR,
28       ensure you understand what the signed certificate can do.
