Working with Services
Services expose stable network endpoints for pods in your cluster.
Common actions
| Action | Steps |
|---|---|
| Describe | Right-click Service → Describe |
| Port forward | Context menu → port forward to reach the service locally |
| Edit YAML | Describe webview → YAML tab |
| Delete | Context menu → Delete (confirmation required) |
Tips
- Review selector labels and endpoints in the describe view to confirm pods match the service.
- Port forwarding is useful for ClusterIP services that are not otherwise reachable from your workstation.
