Accessing multiple AWS EKS clusters#

Lens Desktop supports access to multiple Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) clusters using the single sign-on mechanism.

Prerequisites for Amazon EKS clusters to be visible in Lens Desktop:

  • The IAM Identity Center is enabled. See Enable IAM Identity Center for details.
  • All the users and/or groups have access to all the targeted Amazon EKS clusters. You can assign access in the IAM Identity Center console. See the Single sign-on access article on the official AWS Documentation site.
  • All Amazon EKS clusters have appropriate kubeconfig files. To create or updtate a Amazon EKS kubeconfig file, run the following command:

    aws eks update-kubeconfig --region region-code --name my-cluster
