<p>I am trying to scrape data from Istio envoy at 15090 port using prometheus.</p>

<p>My current setup is with istio 1.1.5 with standalone prometheus(not the one which comes attached with istio)</p>

<p>Envoy sidecars are attached to multiple pods in different namespaces and I am not sure how to scrape data on specific port in multiple istio-proxy containers</p>

<p>I tried using service monitor to scrape data from istio envoy and its not working.</p>

<p>Service monitor which I tried currently.</p>

<pre><code>kind: ServiceMonitor
metadata:
  annotations:
  labels:
    k8s-app: istio
  name: envoy
  namespace: monitoring
spec:
  endpoints:
  - interval: 5s
    path: /metrics
    port: http-envoy-prom
  jobLabel: envoy
  namespaceSelector:
    matchNames:
    - istio-system
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      istio: mixer```

can somebody help, how to scrape data from port 15090 on multiple istio-proxy containers attached to multiple pods.

<p>Apart from ServiceMonitor you also need to create following  scrape config for envoy proxies</p>

<pre><code> # Scrape config for envoy stats
    - job_name: 'envoy-stats'
      metrics_path: /stats/prometheus

      - source_labels: [__address__, __meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_prometheus_io_port]
        action: replace
        regex: ([^:]+)(?::\d+)?;(\d+)
