Getting Started with Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus guide helm deployment error

Question

Hi,

trying to follow the: `Getting Started with Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus guide`

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mt/getting-started-amazon-managed-service-for-prometheus/?sc_channel=EL&sc_campaign=Demo_Deep_Dive_2021_vid&sc_medium=YouTube&sc_content=Video8861&sc_detail=MANAGEMENT_GOVERNANCE&sc_country=US

But getting an error on the `Deploying Prometheus server` helm deployment step.

I have the variables set up, amp setup. but when running

```
helm install prometheus-for-amp prometheus-community/prometheus -n prometheus -f ./amp_ingest_override_values.yaml \
--set serviceAccounts.server.annotations."eks\.amazonaws\.com/role-arn"="${IAM_PROXY_PROMETHEUS_ROLE_ARN}" \
--set server.remoteWrite[0].url="https://aps-workspaces.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com/workspaces/${WORKSPACE_ID}/api/v1/remote_write" \
--set server.remoteWrite[0].sigv4.region=${AWS_REGION}
```

I get the error:

```
zsh: no matches found: server.remoteWrite[0].url=https://aps-workspaces.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/workspaces/ws-xxx/api/v1/remote_write
```

When i go to `AMP` i can see the http path is correct (the console gives a `v1/query` instead of `v1/remote_write` though.

Any idea how troubleshoot?

Accepted Answer

It looks like the shell is unable to parse the command. You can try to escape the square brackets in `server.remoteWrite[0].url` and see if it works.

Change `server.remoteWrite[0].url` to `server.remoteWrite$$0$$.url`

Another approach is to hardcode the URL in your `amp_ingest_override_values.yaml` file and remove the `--set server.remoteWrite[0].url` flag from your command.

```
server:
  remoteWrite:
    -
      url: https://aps-workspaces.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/workspaces/ws-xxx/api/v1/remote_write
      queue_config:
        max_samples_per_send: 1000
        max_shards: 200
        capacity: 2500
```
I hope this helps!
