title: pods is forbidden: User "system:serviceaccount:kubernetes-dashboard:admin-user" cannot list resource "pods" in API group "" in the namespace "default"
body: <p>I am trying to setup Kubernetes on Ubuntu 18.04 by following <a href="https://phoenixnap.com/kb/install-kubernetes-on-ubuntu" rel="noreferrer">this article</a>.</p>
  
  <p>Everything works fine but when I am trying to access local Kubernetes dashboard then it shows empty and nothing is visible like pods,services &amp; deployments. </p>
  
  <p>However when I am running <code>$&gt; kubectl get pods,svc,deployments</code> then it shows following output.If command line is showing all the details why I am seeing empty Kubernetes dashboard? </p>
  
  <p>I already ran following commands</p>
  
  <pre><code>$&gt; kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v2.0.0-beta8/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml
  
  $&gt; kubectl proxy
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Am I missing any configuration here? Any suggestions to fix this issue?</p>
  
  <pre><code>$&gt; kubectl get pods --all-namespaces
  NAMESPACE              NAME                                         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE

  <p>After looking at the notification section, found these errors</p>
  
  <blockquote>

  <hr>
  
  <p><strong>Update 1:</strong></p>
  
  <p>its working now after applying RBAC   kubectl apply -f <a href="https://gist.github.com/chukaofili/9e94d966e73566eba5abdca7ccb067e6" rel="noreferrer">filename.yml</a></p>
