 kubectl proxy &

curl http://localhost:8001/

Let's get request without kubectl proxy.

export TOKEN=$(kubectl create token default)

kubectl create clusterrole api-access-root --verb=get --non-resource-url="/*"

kubectl create clusterrolebinding api-access-root --clusterrole api-access-root --serviceaccount=default:default

export APISERVER=$(kubectl config view | grep https | cut -f 2- -d ":" | tr -d " ")

curl $APISERVER --header "Authorization:** **Bearer $TOKEN" --insecure

Or you can use authentication with certificate:

curl $APISERVER --cert encoded-cert --key encoded-key --cacert encoded-ca
