# Connect a cluster to GitLab **(FREE)**
2021-12-11 22:18:48 +05:30
The [certificate-based Kubernetes integration with GitLab](../index.md)
was [deprecated](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/configure/-/epics/8)
2022-05-07 20:08:51 +05:30
in GitLab 14.5. To connect your clusters, use the [GitLab agent](../../../clusters/agent/index.md).

## Cluster levels (DEPRECATED)
> [Deprecated](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/configure/-/epics/8) in GitLab 14.5.
WARNING:
The [concept of cluster levels was deprecated](../index.md#cluster-levels)
in GitLab 14.5.
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
Choose your cluster's level according to its purpose:
| Level | Purpose |
|--|--|
| [Project level](../../../project/clusters/index.md) | Use your cluster for a single project. |
| [Group level](../../../group/clusters/index.md) | Use the same cluster across multiple projects within your group. |
| [Instance level](../../../instance/clusters/index.md) | Use the same cluster across groups and projects within your instance. |
### View your clusters
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
To view the Kubernetes clusters connected to your project,
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
group, or instance, open the cluster's page according to
your cluster's level.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
**Project-level clusters:**
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.

## Security implications for clusters connected with certificates
2021-12-11 22:18:48 +05:30
> Connecting clusters to GitLab through cluster certificates was [deprecated](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/configure/-/epics/8) in GitLab 14.5.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
WARNING:
The whole cluster security is based on a model where [developers](../../../permissions.md)
are trusted, so **only trusted users should be allowed to control your clusters**.
The use of cluster certificates to connect your cluster grants
access to a wide set of functionalities needed to successfully
build and deploy a containerized application. Bear in mind that
the same credentials are used for all the applications running
on the cluster.
