# Remote Dashboard Access

Platform9 automatically installs the Kubernetes dashboard into every cluster configure with Token and Kubeconfig access. You can securely access the Kubernetes dashboard directly from the Platform9 SaaS Management Plane from both the Infrastructure page and the Cluster Details page. To log into the dashboard, you will need to download a Kubeconfig for the target cluster.

## Step 1 – Download Kubeconfig

Navigate to the Cluster Details page by clicking on a cluster on the Infrastructure dashboards Clusters tab.

On the cluster details dashboard, click the Kubeconfig link that's within the Cluster details card.

Select either token or username & password and download the kubeconfig.

## Step 2 – Launch the Kubernetes Dashboard

From a Cluster Details page, click the Dashboard link from within the Cluster Details card. This will open up a secure tunnel to the remote cluster's Dashboard. When the page loads, use the Kubeconfig to login.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.platform9.com/managed-kubernetes/5.7/kubernetes-dashboard/remote-dashboard-access.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
