## Permission Summary

View Kubernetes clusters but not cluster credentials

## Associated Permissions

Associated permissions are not required, but they support full functionality of the permission they’re associated with.

For example, to create a Droplet, you need `droplet:create`. To tag a Droplet during creation, you additionally need `tag:create`, so `tag:create` is listed as an associated permission for `droplet:create`.

The following permissions are associated with `kubernetes:read`:

| Permission | Description |
|---|---|
| [`tag:read`](../../tag/read) | View resource tags |
| [`project:read`](../../project/read) | View projects |
| [`vpc:read`](../../vpc/read) | View VPCs |
| [`monitoring:read`](../../monitoring/read) | View Monitoring metrics and alert policies |
| [`app:read`](../../app/read) | View App Platform apps |
