Hello 😀

I'm trying to build `Observability`

```auto
ES / Ki ver : 8.12.2 (Basic)

```

Using the below.

- Fleet (Fleet-Server)
- Elastic APM (not "APM", "Elastic APM")
- Installation is only through the Kibana UI ( except for the Elastic-Agent )

My ultimate goal is to record Elasticsearch Query body.

I found this method after looking for various ways.  
`Capture body` option in "Observability \> APM \> Settings \> Agent Configuration \> Configurations \> (Service name) elasticsearch"

Finally saved the settings but this didn't work. 🥲  
To be precise,  
It was stored in ".apm-agent-configuration", but APM did not collect as set. The indicator is gray and indicates a tooltip as "Not yet applied by any agents".

Can you tell me what to do?  
Please let me know if there is anything you need to answer.  
Thank you.
