 NOTE: **NOTE:**
 Prior to GitLab 11.5, `KUBE_TOKEN` was the Kubernetes token of the main
 service account of the cluster integration.
 
-### Troubleshooting missing `KUBECONFIG` or `KUBE_TOKEN`
-
-GitLab will create a new service account specifically for your CI builds. The
-new service account is created when the cluster is added to the project.
-Sometimes there may be errors that cause the service account creation to fail.
-
-In such instances, your build will not be passed the `KUBECONFIG` or
-`KUBE_TOKEN` variables and, if you are using Auto DevOps, your Auto DevOps
-pipelines will no longer trigger a `production` deploy build. You will need to
-check the [logs](../../../administration/logs.md) to debug why the service
-account creation failed.
-
-A common reason for failure is that the token you gave GitLab did not have
-[`cluster-admin`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/rbac/#user-facing-roles)
-privileges as GitLab expects.
-
-Another common problem for why these variables are not being passed to your
-builds is that they must have a matching
-[`environment:name`](../../../ci/environments.md#defining-environments). If
-your build has no `environment:name` set, it will not be passed the Kubernetes
-credentials.
