If admins have [enforced TTL on kubeconfig tokens](../../reference-guides/about-the-api/api-tokens.md#setting-ttl-on-kubeconfig-tokens), the kubeconfig file requires the [Rancher CLI](../../pages-for-subheaders/cli-with-rancher.md) to be present in your PATH when you run `kubectl`.

This feature enables kubectl to authenticate with the Rancher server and get a new kubeconfig token when required. The following auth providers are currently supported:

When you first run kubectl, for example, `kubectl get pods`, it will ask you to pick an auth provider and log in with the Rancher server. The kubeconfig token is cached in the path where you run kubectl under `./.cache/token`. This token is valid until [it expires](../../reference-guides/about-the-api/api-tokens.md#setting-ttl-on-kubeconfig-tokens-period), or [gets deleted from the Rancher server](../../reference-guides/about-the-api/api-tokens.md#deleting-tokens). Upon expiration, the next `kubectl get pods` will ask you to log in with the Rancher server again.
