<p>I am trying to run a Kubernetes cluster on Google cloud. I am using the below link - <a href="http://kubernetes.io/docs/hellonode/" rel="nofollow">http://kubernetes.io/docs/hellonode/</a></p>

<p>When I execute the below command - gcloud container clusters get-credentials hello-world</p>

<p>I get an error Request had insufficient authentication scopes</p>

<p>What is the possible solution to this problem?</p>

<p>The Container Engine API requires the <code>cloud-platform</code> <a href="https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/authentication#oauth-scopes" rel="nofollow">OAuth2 Scope</a> for authentication. If you are running these commands from a Google Compute Engine instance, you'll need to create the instance with that authentication scope:</p>

<ul>
<li><p>With the gcloud CLI, add <code>--scopes=cloud-platform</code> to your <code>gcloud compute instances create</code> command.</p></li>
<li><p>In the Developer Console UI, select "Allow full access to all Cloud APIs" on the "Create an Instance" page.</p></li>
</ul>
