We are using metricbeat 7.7 to fetch data from azure using azure module and we use the data to build some monitoring dashboards . Everything was working fine until we discovered a missing field in metricbeat which is azure.resource.name .  
We went through the documentation and we didn't find the field in metricbeat 7.7 anymore.  
The most confusing thing is that it was working fine just few days ago with the same version , why the field disappeared now ?

hi @Abir_Mahfoudhi, the `azure.resource.name` has been moved to `cloud.name` in order to align to ECS rules.  
The change happened here in 7.7 [https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/17352](https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/17352). You can use the new field instead.
