I want to add the RUM scripts to kibana. I think that would be useful and fun. Can't seem to find out if it's possible and was looking for advice. Thanks!

Hi @Esity,
While that's not officially supported, it's definitely a nice idea!
One way to do so would be to build Kibana yourself and add the agent directly to the bundle ([https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/rum-js/current/getting-started.html#using-package-managers](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/rum-js/current/getting-started.html#using-package-managers)). In the repository it's explained how you can create your own build of Kibana: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#testing-and-building](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#testing-and-building)
You could just add the code to a central file like `src/legacy/core_plugins/kibana/public/kibana.js` and see whether it gets hooked up correctly. Let me know when you run into difficulties.
