Hi

I tried following steps from below github to get Kubernetes metrics

https://github.com/signalfx/splunk-otel-collector-chart

 

Here is the code I used and I am getting logs in main index k8main , but no data in metrics index k8metrics.

helm install my-splunk-otel-collector --set="splunkPlatform.endpoint=XXXXX,
splunkPlatform.token=YYYYY,
splunkPlatform.index=k8main,
splunkPlatform.metricsEnabled=true,
splunkPlatform.metricsIndex=k8metrics,
splunkPlatform.insecureSkipVerify=true,
clusterName=splunk-cluster" splunk-otel-collector-chart/splunk-otel-collector
 

Here is the error i am getting

error exporterhelper/queued_retry.go:395 Exporting failed. The error is not retryable. Dropping data. {"kind": "exporter", "data_type": "metrics", "name": "splunk_hec/platform_metrics", "error": "Permanent error: \"HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request\\r\\nContent-Length: 60\\r\\nConnection: Keep-Alive\\r\\nContent-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8\\r\\nDate: Fri, 30 Sep 2022 14:44:09 GMT\\r\\nServer: Splunkd\\r\\nVary: Authorization\\r\\nX-Content-Type-Options: nosniff\\r\\nX-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN\\r\\n\\r\\n{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Incorrect index\\\",\\\"code\\\":7,\\\"invalid-event-number\\\":1}\"", "dropped_items": 27}


Can someone please advice on how to get metrics in the above scenario.

Thank You.
