<p>I am using kubernetes dasboard in version: v1.10.1</p>

<p>When I go to "Roles" tab I can see a list of ClusterRoles and Roles.</p>

<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/xWxdX.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/xWxdX.png" alt="k8s dashboard"></a></p>

<p>I would like to see more details about a particular role from the list, but I do not see any "details" button. I want to see information about the role in the dashboard widget or even in yaml format. Am I missing something or this is not possible through dashboard? </p>

<p>Unfortunately it's not possible to achieve what you described in Kubernetes Dashboard even on the most recent version. </p>

<p>To list all Roles on your cluster, you need to use the command line tool (kubectl): </p>

<pre><code>kubectl get rolebindings,clusterrolebindings --all-namespaces -o custom-columns='KIND:kind,NAMESPACE:metadata.namespace,NAME:metadata.name,SERVICE_ACCOUNTS:subjects[?(@.kind=="ServiceAccount")].name'
</code></pre>

<p>Than you can extract the yaml file as in this example: </p>

<pre><code>kubectl get clusterrolebindings prometheus -o yaml
</code></pre>

<p>Or you can just describe it:</p>

<pre><code>kubectl describe clusterrolebindings prometheus
</code></pre>
