How to ingest data from specific namespace in OpenShift using Splunk Connect for Kubernetes?

Hi, folks.

We were trying to ingest data from Openshift using Splunk Connect for Kubernetes. So far we have succeeded in ingesting from the whole infrastructure. So we are wondering if we can limit from which specific namespaces we are going to ingest data from.

As far as I understood from this link (https://github.com/splunk/splunk-connect-for-kubernetes#managing-sck-log-ingestion-by-using-annotati...), it tells us how to route data per namespaces to specific indexes but still collecting from all namespaces.

Our goal is currently to collect only from certain namespaces, e.g. just from 2 namespaces instead of all of them.  Is it possible to do with the add-on? Did I miss some detailed explanations?

Please advise.
