Hi,

I have gone through the documentation link below to understand the fields exported by metricbeat for Kubernetes, but I do not see any field to get the SHA256 checksum of the container image being used for a running container. So, how can we get this done using metricbeat. ?

[Kubernetes fields | Metricbeat Reference [8.6] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/exported-fields-kubernetes.html)
