Open Pod Shell#

Lens Desktop is the application that enables performing many Kubernetes-related tasks without using the command line interface (CLI). However, some of the tasks require the CLI and Lens Desktop also provides it. To open the embedded CLI:

  1. Navigate to Workloads > Pods through the left panel.
  2. Right-click on a pod and select Shell.

Watch a quick video on how to connect to a pod shell from the pod details panel:
