Exercise 5.5

suser

Hello,
Exercise 5.5
I created a secret and kubectl describes it as Opaque type secret, and I do not understand why. I removed the type from my yaml file.
Cannot find any reference (I can see this output at Exercise 6.3 as well, but not extra info about).

kubectl get secrets
NAME TYPE DATA AGE
default-token-zqbsw kubernetes.io/service-account-token 3 21d
specialofday Opaque 1 2s

Hi Stefan,

For terms that are not fully explained in the lab exercises or lectures, and their meaning cannot be derived directly out of the context they are presented, you can always just look them up in the official documentation https://kubernetes.io/, where you may find definitions, additional properties, and possible usage examples.

Regards,
