.SH NAME
.PP
openshift cli serviceaccounts create\-kubeconfig \- Generate a kubeconfig file for a service account


.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\fBopenshift cli serviceaccounts create\-kubeconfig\fP [OPTIONS]


.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Generate a kubeconfig file that will utilize this service account.

.PP
The kubeconfig file will reference the service account token and use the current server, namespace, and cluster contact info. If the service account has multiple tokens, the first token found will be returned. The generated file will be output to STDOUT.
