VPA Recommendations with Grafana Visualization

[chekly]

From this link : https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/14588-vpa-recommendations/

I am trying to install dashboard to visualize metrics about the Vertical Pod Autoscalar on Grafana, because the kube-state-metrics MUST be configured to enable Vertical Pod Autoscalar metrics

I am using kube-prometheus-stack from this this link : https://github.com/prometheus-community/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/kube-prometheus-stack

My helmchart values.yaml has the following for deployment

`
grafana:
additionalDataSources:
- name: Loki
type: loki
url: http://loki-distributed-gateway.addons.svc.cluster.local
jsonData:
maxLines: 2000
derivedFields:
- datasourceUid: Tempo
matcherRegex: [trace_id=(.+) span_id=
name: TraceID
url: '$${__value.raw}'
urlDisplayLabel: 'View Trace'
- name: Tempo
type: tempo
url: http://tempo:3100
jsonData:
maxLines: 2000
traceQuery:
timeShiftEnabled: true

spanEndTimeShift: '-1h'

I need to add "kube-state-metrice" to the values.yaml

my question is this should kube-state-metrice be in the same line indentation with grafana or a seperate indentation, knowing fully well that kube-state-metrics MUST be configured to enable Vertical Pod Autoscalar metrics

`

kube-state-metrics:
rbac:
extraRules:
- apiGroups: ["autoscaling.k8s.io"]
resources: ["verticalpodautoscalers"]
verbs: ["list", "watch"]
prometheus:
monitor:
enabled: true
