Root task 'watcher of kopfexamples.zalando.org' is failed: 403, message='Forbidden' - EKS

Question

I am trying to run the first example on EKS. The first example fails with Forbidden error when accessing the API server.
I am not sure where kopf takes its creds from.

I followed https://kopf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install/ after cloning the kopf repo

[kopf]$kopf run examples/01-minimal/example.py

It is not clear if kopf run should be executed from my client (MacOS) or deployed as a container so the permissions are taken from the pod service account or the node IAM role. Where kops is taking its permissions to run?

[magebeans]

It takes its permissions from the service account associated with it; those creds won't be on your local client, only on the container in the pod that you deploy it to (assuming the pod is set up with a service account that has the right role bindings to a role with sufficient permissions). You have to deploy it, running locally won't work on anything but minikube.
