This worked for me:

  1. save the ca.crt to that file.
  2. save the token to token.txt.

Then you can do the following, and it will work:

curl  https://controlplane:6443/api/v1/namespaces/default/pods   -H "Authorization: Bearer $(cat token.txt)" --cacert ca.crt

So any idea why it didn’t work for me?
I showed each file/variable and its content/value were correct

Not sure. Might be where there are embedded return characters in your command. Might have copied the wrong cert. Can’t tell from what’s in your image.
