- [Exec plugin](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/#client-go-credential-plugins) is a Kubernetes authentication strategy that allows `kubectl` to execute an external command to receive user credentials to send to `apiserver`. Starting with Kubernetes version 1.26, the default Azure authorization plugin is no longer included in `client-go` and `kubectl`. With later versions, in order to use the exec plugin to receive user credentials you must use Azure Kubelogin, a `client-go` credential (exec) plugin that implements Azure authentication.
