VIDEO: Alcide Advisor Overview
Alcide Kubernetes Advisor runs against a kubernetes cluster and requires access to kubeconfig
to authenticate & authorize itself to the cluster.
If your pipeline can run kubectl commands against the cluster successfully - you should be ready to initiate a scan.
To run against GKE, add the variable GCLOUD_SERVICE_KEY
under My Repositories --> YourRepo Choose the More options --> Settings and paste into the value (don't forget to place it with '') the content of GCP service account file.
