 ## Configuring kubectl
 
 In order for kubectl to find and access a Kubernetes cluster, it needs a [kubeconfig file](/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/authenticate-across-clusters-kubeconfig/), which is created automatically when you create a cluster using kube-up.sh or successfully deploy a Minikube cluster. See the [getting started guides](/docs/getting-started-guides/) for more about creating clusters. If you need access to a cluster you didn't create, see the [Sharing Cluster Access document](/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/share-configuration/).
