Exporting OpenTelemetry Data from Pixie to SigNoz on Kubernetes

TLDR Nilanjan asks how to export opentelemetry data from Pixie to SigNoz on the same Kubernetes cluster. Srikanth suggests configuring the endpoint of the collector in Pixie, but viewing the data in SigNoz dashboard remains unresolved.

Hi Team ,

I am trying to export the opentelemetry data from Pixie to signoz . Both are running on the same kubernetes cluster.
From this https://signoz.io/docs/userguide/send-metrics/ i see the configuration is given as "To configure a new metric receiver, you must edit the receivers section of the deploy/docker/clickhouse-setup/otel-collector-config.yaml file." How to do this in kubernetes ? For Pixie I am following this document https://docs.px.dev/tutorials/integrations/otel/#setup-the-plugin. Any clue on this will be helpfull.

You don’t need to anything additional since the OTLP receiver always exists. Just configure the endpoint of collector in pixie.

Hi Srikanth,
I have configured to export the otel data as stated here https://docs.px.dev/tutorials/integrations/otel/
The endpoint parameter is mentioned as below :
endpoint=px.otel.Endpoint(
url='otel-collector.default.svc.cluster.local:4317',
insecure=True
),
The endpoint url must be an OpenTelemetry gRPC endpoint.
How do i see this data in SigNoz dashboard ? Can you give some pointers here.
Thanks
