<pre><code>kubectl cp --help
Copy files and directories to and from containers.

Examples:
  # !!!Important Note!!!
  # Requires that the 'tar' binary is present in your container
  # image.  If 'tar' is not present, 'kubectl cp' will fail.

  # Copy /tmp/foo_dir local directory to /tmp/bar_dir in a remote pod in the default namespace
  kubectl cp /tmp/foo_dir &lt;some-pod&gt;:/tmp/bar_dir

  # Copy /tmp/foo local file to /tmp/bar in a remote pod in a specific container
  kubectl cp /tmp/foo &lt;some-pod&gt;:/tmp/bar -c &lt;specific-container&gt;

  # Copy /tmp/foo local file to /tmp/bar in a remote pod in namespace &lt;some-namespace&gt;
  kubectl cp /tmp/foo &lt;some-namespace&gt;/&lt;some-pod&gt;:/tmp/bar

  # Copy /tmp/foo from a remote pod to /tmp/bar locally
  kubectl cp &lt;some-namespace&gt;/&lt;some-pod&gt;:/tmp/foo /tmp/bar

Options:
  -c, --container='': Container name. If omitted, the first container in the pod will be chosen
      --no-preserve=false: The copied file/directory's ownership and permissions will not be preserved in the container

Usage:
  kubectl cp &lt;file-spec-src&gt; &lt;file-spec-dest&gt; [options]

Use "kubectl options" for a list of global command-line options (applies to all commands).
