1. Download and modify the values.yaml configuration file.

Example:

# Configure the scrape path and port of Managed Service for Prometheus.
podAnnotations: {

  prometheus.io/port: "5000",
  prometheus.io/scrape: "true"
}

# Choose one of the following methods for AWS authentication. An AccessKey ID (AK)/AccessKey secret (SK) is recommended.

  role:

  # The name of a secret you prepared for storing AWS credentials. When it's
  # set, aws_access_key_id is stored in the access_key field,
  # aws_secret_access_key in the secret_key field, and the
  # session token, if any, in the security_token field.
  secret:
    name:
    includesSessionToken: false

  # Note: Do not specify aws_access_key_id and aws_secret_access_key if you configured the role or secret name.
