Error while trying to provision JWT credentials

[mikyll]

I've been following the guide to setup the ACL plugin and here's my setup:

• local cluster using minikube (and minikube tunnel running in background);
• Kong installed;
• echo service from the example;
• 3 routes (to test different plugins and settings): /echo, /lemon, /lime

Everything is fine and goes as expected, until I reach the Provision JWT Credentials step. When I enter the following command:

kubectl create secret \
   generic admin-jwt  \
   --from-literal=kongCredType=jwt  \
   --from-literal=key="admin-issuer" \
   --from-literal=algorithm=RS256 \
   --from-literal=rsa_public_key="<public_key_generated_from_jwt.io>"

I get this error:

error: failed to create secret admission webhook "validations.kong.konghq.com" denied the request: consumer credential failed validation: missing required field(s): secret

How can I fix the error and continue with the tutorial?
Is the documentation wrong/outdated?
Should I include any other option/parameter?
Does this depend on my local setup using minikube?

Thanks for reporting, documentation provides the wrong example. It will be improved (PR for docs with update).

On the page dedicated JWT plugin you can read warning

so you have to fill secret field too with a dummy value because you're using algorithm RS256.

Thank you so, that was super quick :)
