I just saw that there is a specific Kafka Metrics Receiver for metrics in the opentelemetry-collector-contrib project.
@bogdandrutu or @tigrannajaryan is there a plan to merge the functionality of the contrib Kafka Metrics Receiver into the official Kafka Receiver?

No, as far as I know the two are completely different. One collects Kafka's own metrics, the other receives arbitrary telemetry payloads from Kafka.
@tigrannajaryan thank you very much for the precisions!
Is there a roadmap to support the metrics
signal through the Kafka Receiver?
@secat Metrics support using the Kafka receiver is not prioritized currently. Feel free to join in to contribute if you're interested in adding that support.
Hello,
We are currently facing an issue with metrics consumption from kafka receiver running on kubernetes.
Here's what we are trying to achieve:
Metrics from app ---->(receiver: otlp) OTLP Collector 1 (exporter: kafka)---> KAFKA <--- (receiver: kafka) OTLP Collector 2(exporter: prometheus)
but we get this error message :
Here's a sample of my configuration:
OTLP Collector 1:
OTLP Collector 2 :
We already noticed
"Supported pipeline types: traces, logs"
on the kafka receiver front page but is it possible to use kafka for metrics another way ? Is it an incoming feature ?Thank you !
