The command for connection to the cluster can be obtained from the

[Google Cloud Platform Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/kubernetes/list)
|
|
|
|
|
by the individual cluster.

## Connect to local minikube cluster
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are doing local development, you can use `minikube` as your
|
|
|
|
|
local cluster. If `kubectl cluster-info` is not showing `minikube` as the current
|
|
|
|
|
cluster, use `kubectl config set-cluster minikube` to set the active cluster.
