I want to detect AWS/SES metric set from cloud watch or basically monitor SES metrics via elastic. I tried to configure "\*" namespace but still, it doesn't query all of the namespaces. I am have tested with 7.5.1 and 7.6.2 as well. ---

Hi @Abhishek_Tanwar, thanks for reporting your issue here. Could you share your config file here please? Thanks! I will try to reproduce it on my side too. ---

Could you also verify around the timestamp of you have Metricbeat running, there are metrics in CloudWatch under AWS/SES namespace please? Thanks! ---

I assume you are using the shared credential file ~/.aws/credentials default profile name for authentication then? If that's the case, the config looks right! While running Metricbeat, do you see any metrics under AWS/SES namespace inside CloudWatch portal? ---

Yes I can see metrics in cloud watch. There are 4 metrics as standard in AWS/SES. Regards, Abhishek Tanwar ---

Hmm I still can't reproduce it. Here is what I see in CloudWatch: ![Screen Shot 2020-04-13 at 1.17.43 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/3/13db869765069b815b0a78d82e3f7ef8ef5eeffb.png) and when I start Metricbeat with aws.yml config: ```auto - module: aws period: 5m credential_profile_name: elastic-beats metricsets: - cloudwatch metrics: - namespace: AWS/SES ``` I got an event: ```auto { "_index": "metricbeat-8.0.0-2020.04.13-000001", "_type": "_doc", "_id": "dtr4dHEBnhw1ZtvVMsHy", "_version": 1, "_score": null, "_source": { "@timestamp": "2020-04-13T19:15:42.328Z", "event": { "dataset": "aws.cloudwatch", "module": "aws", "duration": 11090806378 }, "metricset": { "name": "cloudwatch", "period": 300000 }, "service": { "type": "aws" }, "cloud": { "provider": "aws", "region": "us-east-1", "account": { "name": "elastic-beats", "id": "428152502467" } }, "aws": { "ses": { "metrics": { "Send": { "avg": 1, "max": 1, "min": 1, "sum": 1, "count": 1 }, "Delivery": { "count": 1, "avg": 1, "max": 1, "min": 1, "sum": 1 } } }, "cloudwatch": { "namespace": "AWS/SES" } } }, "fields": { "@timestamp": [ "2020-04-13T19:15:42.328Z" ] }, "sort": [ 1586805342328 ] } ``` ---

Based on the timestamp, there is a delay. Is that might be the issue for you? Or are you seeing any error message from Metricbeat log? ---
