Summary

  • In the Kubernetes deployment guide for Cloudflare Tunnel, this change simplifies how the tunnel token is stored in a secret.
  • The guide is updated to use the stringData field instead of the data field in the Kubernetes Secret manifest.
  • This allows users to provide the tunnel token as a plain string without needing to manually base64 encode it, making the process easier and less prone to errors.

Fixes #25735
