 - `events`: Use to configure the events metric.
   - `enabled`: (default: `false`): enabling will add the events metric.
   - `dimensions`: (mandatory if `enabled`) the list of the span's event attributes to add as dimensions to the events metric, which will be included _on top of_ the common and configured `dimensions` for span and resource attributes.
+- `resource_metrics_key_attributes`: Filter the resource attributes used to produce the resource metrics key map hash. Use this in case changing resource attributes (e.g. process id) are breaking counter metrics.
