> version  
> elasticsearch : 7.7.0  
> beats : 7.5

I follow the following elastic [blog](https://www.elastic.co/blog/ingesting-metrics-securely-elastic-stack-role-based-access-control-rbac?utm_content=category:blog-engineering,organic,solution:observability,type:link&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter)

`is this a bug from elasticsearch version 7.7.0 ???`
