Testing VM feature in 1.8 getting error with istioctl x worload

1

Hi all, Im relatively new to Istio, trying to test VM feature but getting following error.
From message it appears that for some reason it is not able to create a token. I have service account in the namespace created so not sure what the problem could be. Im sure, missing something obvious, appreciate any help.

istioctl x workload entry configure -f workloadgroup.yaml -o “${WORK_DIR}”
Error: could not create a token under service account test-vm-svcact in namespace test-vmns: the server could not find the requested resource

Just a heads up, I’m seeing the same thing. Trying to enable some kind of debugging output as well. If I try to configure the entry by file artifact or by an existing workload group that exists, I get the same error.

Looks like because TokenRequest API is not turned on in k8s cluster. Istio document does not mention that as a requirement.
