Hi,  
I have an automation manager and want to connect it to my observability instance in order to collect logs.

Default values

Documentation [IoT Runtime Components Configuration - Critical Manufacturing Documentation Portal](https://help.criticalmanufacturing.com/installationguide/post-installation/connect-iot/connectiotautomationmanagerconfig/#otlp-transport-options-example)

Can someone help, what do I need to fill in?
