Stream last events at the bottom of Kubernetes resource details

Release notes

While GitLab allows you a real-time view into your pods and streaming pod logs, we missed showing you resource-specific event information within the GitLab UI, thus making it necessary to use 3rd party tools for debugging Kubernetes deployments. The most recent GitLab release shipped with events added to the resource details view on the Kubernetes dashboard.

Problem to solve

As an Application Operator, I want to see the latest events related to various Kubernetes resources, so I can troubleshoot issues and easily understand recent changes in the cluster.

This issue adds streaming capabilities to List last events at the bottom of Kubernetes re... (#470041 - closed)

Proposal

  • Can we stream every time the resource details panel is opened?
  • Do we need a button to restart streaming?

Intended users
