How to ensure that a pod does not restart?

I have a pod that is meant to run a code excerpt and exit afterwards. I do not want this pod to restart after exiting, but apparently it is not possible to set a restart policy in Kubernetes (see here and here).

Therefore my question is: how can I implement a pod that runs only once?

Thank you

You need to deploy a job. A deployment is meant to keep the containers running all the time. Give a check on:
