Automatically populate Kubernetes customDimensions
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'd like to have information about the deployment environment collected and sent along with the traces.
I was expecting this information to already be included like it is with the codeless asp.net library for App Insights for Kubernetes.
Describe the solution you would like The agent should have a configuration option that causes it to automatically collect environment info from the Kuberentes API and decorate the metrics/traces with that information.
Describe alternatives you have considered
Inject environment variables via the resource definition and reference them in the applicationinsights.json customDimensions section.
Here's my workaround, which maybe is good enough to be included in this project? 🤷
