How do I send statsd metrics to Cloudwatch from an Elastic Beanstalk application?

Question

After combing through docs, I see that CloudWatch can accept custom statsd metrics with the correct configuration (adding the statsd: {} property to the config object). However, I am unsure how to send those metrics from my Elastic Beanstalk app to CloudWatch. There doesn't appear to be a built-in way to do that.

If this needs to be manually configured on the EB side, can someone please point me to some documentation?

Answer

You can refer to this documentation about using [.Ebexetensions configuration file to configure CloudWatch agent to push custom metrics](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/customize-containers-cw.html).
