Is it possible to filter Kubernetes labels sent by OneAgent?

sp72 — Wed, 17 Dec 2025 12:19:48 GMT

Hello,

We have labels and annotations assigned to kubernetes pods sent to DynaTrace automatically by OneAgent sidecar. Is it possible to define what labels should be and what labels should not be sent? Is there a possibility to filter them? There are too many labels and annotations defined and most of them of no use within DT. Hence, looking to limit them.

Thank you, Sergei

Hi Sergi,

Dynatrace scrapes all the labels / annotations. there is no option to filter these. It would make a good enhancement request. This is a common problem (I know we have this issue).
Having a better way to display labels & annotations on k8s would be great.

It would be great if you posted one on this topic.
