+Overrides for the Kubernetes object types fetched from the cluster. The default object types are:
+
+- pods
+- services
+- configmaps
+- limitranges
+- deployments
+- replicasets
+- horizontalpodautoscalers
+- jobs
+- cronjobs
+- ingresses
+- statefulsets
+- daemonsets

+You may use this config to override the default object types if you only want a subset of
