I'd like to use Google IOT to periodically send out custom telemetry which I'd like to ingest into Stackdriver for alerting purposes. Is this doable? As far as I can tell, I cannot seem to load up custom events or telemetry in Stackdriver.

A naive example of this would be, assume an IOT device such as a thermostat and assume the thermostat also has access to its in-memory usage data. I know I can periodically push this data up to Google IOT, but I'd like to chart it in Stackdriver and alert on it.

As soon as you start using IoT Core, the MQTT broker in that product brings the telemetry data over into Pub/Sub, and those messages should be showing up in Stackdriver. It'll just "work" by virtue of using Cloud IoT Core.

Is there a reason you'd want to use Stackdriver specifically though? Might be easier just to like, write a quickie Cloud Function that listens to the Pub/Sub topic and does what you need to do from there?
