- _* As of Fluent-Bit 3.1, this plugin uses a Kubernetes watch stream instead of polling. In versions before 3.1, the interval parameters are used for reconnecting the Kubernetes watch stream._


## Getting Started

### Kubernetes Service Account
The Kubernetes service account used by Fluent Bit must have `get`, `list`, and `watch`
permissions to `namespaces` and `pods` for the namespaces watched in the
`kube_namespace` configuration parameter. If you're using the helm chart to configure
Fluent Bit, this role is included.

lockewritesdocs marked this conversation as resolved.
### Simple Configuration File

In the following configuration file, the input plugin *kubernetes_events* collects events every 5 seconds (default for *interval_nsec*) and exposes them through the [standard output plugin](../outputs/standard-output.md) on the console.
