VSCode Dev Containers does not show “Attach Visual Studio Code” in right-click menu for a pod

admin

I’m trying to follow the suggestions from the “Attach to a running container” article by Visual Studio Code and the image there shows an “Attach Visual Studio Code” in the right click menu for a pod.

I am connected to a linux system using Remote SSH on VS Code and I am connected to my kubernetes cluster using a kubeconfig file. When I go to the pod I want to attach VS Code to and right click, I do not have “Attach Visual Studio Code”. See attached screenshot below.

Pod right-click menu from VS Code

Extension Versions:

  • Kubernetes @ v1.3.16
  • Dev Containers @ v0.375.1

After installing Kubernetes and Dev Containers VS Code extensions, I right-clicked on a pod and expected “Attach Visual Studio Code” to be available in the menu, but it wasn’t.
