Connection Parameters

NameRequired?Description
Private Key JSONRequiredThe contents of the private key JSON file created when setting up a service account.
Metric CollectionControls which metrics get requested from GCP's Stackdriver API.
ProjectsRequiredA comma separated whitelist of project IDs. If the wildcard "*" is used, resources will be collected from all available projects.
ZonesA comma separated whitelist of zones. If the wildcard "*" is used, resources will be collected from all available zones.
Stackdriver Metric Collection TypeSelects whether to pull Kubernetes-Engine metrics from the older GA GCP "container.googleapis.com/" metrics or from the newer BETA external Kubernetes "kubernetes.io/" metrics.
The older GCP metrics only use IDs for Pods/Containers/Nodes which can both be confusing as well as create shorter lived Pod/Container resources.
The newer Kubernetes metrics do not have these issues, but they are charged at a higher external metric rate by Google.
Connection TimeoutThe number of seconds to allow for connecting to the target.
