 ### Apply service defaults
 
 You can apply your `service-defaults` configuration entry using the [`consul config` command](/consul/commands/config) or by calling the [`/config` API endpoint](/consul/api-docs/config). In Kubernetes environments, apply the `service-defaults` custom resource definitions (CRD) to implement and manage Consul configuration entries.
