How to list Kubernetes recently deleted pods?

Question

Is there a way to get some details about Kubernetes pod that was deleted (stopped, replaced by new version).

I am investigating bug. I have logs with my pod name. Th

As of today, kubectl get pods -a is deprecated, and as a result you cannot get deleted pods.

What you can do though, is to get a list of recently deleted pod names - up to 1 hour in the past unless you changed the ttl for kubernetes events - by running:

kubectl get event -o custom-columns=NAME:.metadata.name | cut -d "." -f1

You can then investigate further issues within your logging pipeline if you have one in place.
