Hello,

I want to monitor my **Kubernetes** cluster using metricbeat, and I'm using for that **metricbeat autodiscover feature**. Also I use a custom docker image based on my custom debian bullseye image.

I made all the necessary configurations : Roles and ClusterRoles.

The problem is that the autodiscover didn't work and I get this error message :

```auto
E0504 14:41:40.623715 1 leaderelection.go:330] error retrieving resource lock bilalnamespace/metricbeat-cluster-leader: Get "https://10.43.0.1:443/apis/coordination.k8s.io/v1/namespaces/bilalnamespace/leases/metricbeat-cluster-leader": Forbidden 

```

Also I tried the official docker image and it works fine.  
I didn't understand what is the problem, do you have any ideas ?

to deploy on Kubernetes I used the official yaml file.  
[metricbeat-kubernetes.yaml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elastic/beats/8.1/deploy/kubernetes/metricbeat-kubernetes.yaml)
