# Cluster Environments (deprecated)
DETAILS:
**Tier:** Premium, Ultimate
**Offering:** GitLab.com, Self-managed, GitLab Dedicated
> - [Disabled on self-managed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/353410) in GitLab 15.0.
WARNING:
This feature was [deprecated](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/configure/-/epics/8) in GitLab 14.5.
FLAG:
On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is not available. To make it available, an administrator can [enable the feature flag](../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `certificate_based_clusters`.
Cluster environments provide a consolidated view of which CI [environments](../../ci/environments/index.md) are
deployed to the Kubernetes cluster and it:
- Shows the project and the relevant environment related to the deployment.
- Displays the status of the pods for that environment.
## Overview
With cluster environments, you can gain insight into:
- Which projects are deployed to the cluster.
- How many pods are in use for each project's environment.
- The CI job that was used to deploy to that environment.
Access to cluster environments is restricted to
[group maintainers and owners](../permissions.md#group-members-permissions)
## Usage
To:
- Track environments for the cluster, you must
[deploy to a Kubernetes cluster](../project/clusters/deploy_to_cluster.md)
successfully.
- Show pod usage correctly, you must
[enable deploy boards](../project/deploy_boards.md#enabling-deploy-boards).
After you have successful deployments to your group-level or instance-level cluster:
1. Go to your group's **Kubernetes** page.
1. Select the **Environments** tab.
Only successful deployments to the cluster are included in this page.
Non-cluster environments aren't included.
