Error: invalid bearer token, oidc: verify token: oidc: expected audience

Symptom:

After we implemented dex + github via link. With example-app,we are able to get ID-token via http://127.0.0.1:5555/
With ID-token, we construct kubeconfig, but when we access k8s cluster we hit error:

error: You must be logged in to the server (Unauthorized)

In kube api server logs, we see error:

invalid bearer token, oidc: verify token: oidc: expected audience \"123456\" got [\"example-app\"]]"

 Triage:

Check payload and verify JWT ID-token on https://jwt.io

Check dex container logs

Solution:

It turns out the client-id is not matched. 

The client-id set on K8S API server (--oidc-client-id) link   needs to match the client-id in example-app.

In above example, “123456” is the one I set on K8S API server, while client-id is “example-app”  in the example-app which caused the problem
