Hello, I have tried creating a simple go binary mocking the response you comment:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println(`{"integration_version":"0.1.0","protocol_version":"2","data":[{"metrics":[{"some-data3":4000,"event_type":"CustomSample"}],"inventory":{"instance":{"version":"3.0.1"}},"events":[{"category":"status","summary":"restart"}]}],"name":"com.myorganization.svctest"}`)
}

I build it as nri-custom, and it gets correctly computed by the agent when setting it up in the integrations configuration:

integrations:
  - name: nri-custom
    labels:
      environment: staging

The same applies when creating the binary using the SDK:

package main

import (
	"github.com/newrelic/infra-integrations-sdk/data/metric"
	"github.com/newrelic/infra-integrations-sdk/integration"
	"github.com/newrelic/infra-integrations-sdk/log"
)

var (
	integrationVersion = "0.0.0"
)

const (
	integrationName = "custom"
)

func main() {
	i, err := integration.New(integrationName, integrationVersion)
	fatalIfErr(err)

	e := i.LocalEntity()
	fatalIfErr(err)

	if err := e.Inventory.SetItem("instance", "version", "3.0.1"); err != nil {
		log.Error("fail to set inventory item: %s", err)
	}

	ms := e.NewMetricSet("CustomSample")
	err = ms.SetMetric("some-data", 4000, metric.GAUGE)
	fatalIfErr(err)

	fatalIfErr(i.Publish())
}

func fatalIfErr(err error) {
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}
