My kubernetes node is tls configured. I am tring to use the metricset node, system, pod, container and volume which would be fetched from https://IP\_k8s:10255. It gives me logs saying "error making http request: Get https://IP\_k8s:10255/stats/summary: http: server gave HTTP response to HTTPS client" ---

Hi @sukhada_sankpal369, Couuld you share the settings you are using for the module? I'm wondering if you put `https`in the `hosts` field ---

I tried using it without https. It was connecting using http. ---

Uhm, it looks to me like the service doesn't provide HTTPS, you can use `http` instead, I think that should work. You can test this by hand, using curl for instance: `$ curl http://ip_k8s:10255/stats/summary` and `$ curl https://ip_k8s:10255/stats/summary` Which one is correct? ---

curl command works with https://ip\_k8s:10255/stats/summary ---

What's the output of curl in both cases? ---

It is working fine with http. How to check for metricsets: - state\_node - state\_deployment - state\_replicaset - state\_pod - state\_container using CURL?? Also, I am not able to see data related to POD and Node ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/4/5/45275e59e3718f2356fcd9bca2fcd6cdd09ab5ca.png) ---

That info comes from `kube-state-metrics`, you will need to launch this service in kubernetes: [https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics](https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics) (check [https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics/tree/master/kubernetes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics/tree/master/kubernetes)) then `kube-state-metrics` host dns should be available within the cluster, so you can use curl against it: `curl http://kube-state-metrics:8080` Let me know how it goes ---
