How many times (interval/period) do metrics send to elasticsearch? Where i can see these information?

Elastic Stack Beats

Hello community,

how can i see in which interval the metrics from a cluster is sending to elasticsearch?

what is this "period" in metricbeat-kubernetes.yml saying ?

templates:
            - config:
                - module: kubernetes
                  hosts: ["kube-state-metrics:8080"]
                  **period: 50s**
                  add_metadata: true
                  metricsets:
                    - state_node
2

period: 50s

Means the metrics are collected and published every 50 seconds from metricbeat to elasticsearch.
