Hello,

I noticed part of the K8S integration is grabbing from:

```auto

https://${env.NODE_NAME}:10250

```

The issue is that this is dependent on DNS Resolution and leads to errors:  
`> error making http request: Get "https://<redacted>:10250/stats/summary": lookup <redacted>:53: no such host`

What can I use instead? I tried `${env.NODE_IP}` but that didn't work lol

I see that this environment variable comes not from Kubernetes directly but from the elastic agent install yaml

Ughhh!!!

So I will test out adding NODE\_IP and fieldPath: status.hostIP

It worked!

By adding:

Then updating the Kubernetes integration to use  
`https://${env.NODE_IP}:10250`

I know have data coming in
