    name       = "kubernetes-dashboard" # (Required) Release name.
    repository = "https://kubernetes.github.io/dashboard/" # (Optional) Repository URL where to locate the requested chart.
    chart      = "kubernetes-dashboard" # (Required) Chart name to be installed.
    version    = "5.2.0"
    namespace  = "kube-system"
    values = [templatefile("${path.module}/values.yaml", {})]
  }
