Troubleshooting snmpv3 in sc4snmp

[LarsFromMars]

Hi could i have some pointers in troubleshooting snmpv3
I have configured switches with v3 - I can snmpwalk, snmpget etc successfully using the net-snmp cmds from the sc4snmp host - so my credentials and connectivity are good we are using AuthPriv
When i add those same credentials to a secretname as per : https://splunk.github.io/splunk-connect-for-snmp/main/configuration/snmpv3-configuration/ nothing seems to happen.
I also don't know where to look to troubleshoot - so far i have:

• checked the inventory is updated
  microk8s kubectl logs -f snmp-splunk-connect-for-snmp-inventory-XXXX -n sc4snmp
• looked at all the worker poller logs in splunk but i cannot find anything interesting pertaining to anything successfully or not successfully polled
• tried variations of configurations with the secrets in "" and '' (no special characters used in the secrets)
• confirmed the engine id is correct by polling the engine id oid (tried with and without)

Any other pointers? is there a kubectrl command that shows what the secretname looks like? or any logs showing whether the worker-pollers are trying to poll the device?
