You can use this https://github.com/Stackdriver/jmxtrans-config-stackdriver/blob/master/jmxtrans/stackdriver/json-specify-instance/kafka.json as an example of how Mbean are named and how " is being escaped with \", and just use different output writer for any thing prior to 0.8.2.1 version. After 0.8.2.1, you will have to remove " and there are some changes type,name etc. Please Google search there is JMXTrans tools to auto generate JMX trans configuration from the runnning brokers.
