Deployment Labels

Labels are used to send tags based upon a Deployment or a Pod.

There are two types of labels that the Agent supports.

Deployment labels are added to the deployment metadata as we see below. They will show up as server attributes and their metadata can be broken down within the billing data.

YAML

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: nginx-deployment
  labels:
    app: nginx
    **deployment_label: ui_server_attribute**
  annotations:
    a: hidden_from_ui
    b: hidden_from_ui
    c: hidden_from_ui
spec:
  replicas: 3
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: nginx
  template:
    metadata:
      annotations:
        log.config.scalyr.com/attributes.parser: accessLog
        log.config.scalyr.com/attributes.attribute_tag: ui_log_attribute
      labels:
        app: nginx
        other: ui_log_attribute
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: nginx
        image: nginx:latest
        ports:
        - containerPort: 80

You can check your deployment labels with the following command

kubectl get deployments --show-labels
