Splunk Observability Cloud - Kubernetes Monitoring - CPU Limit

I am using Splunk Observability Cloud for Kubernetes monitoring and trying to retrieve data for container CPU limits using the k8s.container.cpu_limit metric, but I'm not getting any data.

data('k8s.container.cpu_limit',rollup='average').sum(by=['k8s.container.name','k8s.pod.name', 'k8s.pod.uid', 'k8s.node.name', 'k8s.cluster.name'])

Thanks in advance!

Hi @parumugam 

Just to confirm - are you seeing data when you do this?

A = data('k8s.container.cpu_limit').publish(label='A')

If you click on "Data Table" tab, do you see all of the fields your doing the sum BY of?

How are you trying to display this? Try your query with the Table view to see if this works.

One last thing - I presume you have published the values (e.g. with .publish()) ? 

Please let me know how you get on and consider adding karma to this or any other answer if it has helped.
Regards

Will
