I'm trying to get the token for the kubernetes dashboard. It seems none was generated. How do I force it to generate one? Here is what I did:

I've installed Ubuntu 20.04 on a hyperV VM on my local laptop. I used the ubuntu installer to install the microk8s snap.
I then installed dashboard among other things with this command:

microk8s enable dns dashboard storage

With a separate terminal I started a proxy:

microk8s kubectl port-forward -n kube-system service/kubernetes-dashboard 10443:443 --address 0.0.0.0 

which of course asks for a token.
When trying to export the token with:

token=$(microk8s kubectl -n kube-system get secret | grep default-token | cut -d " " -f1)

microk8s kubectl -n kube-system describe secret $token

the resulting output shows no token:
