in Kibana, clicking Observability \> APM \> Services I don't get any service, the screen shows a "Add data" button while in the lab course test case I read "you will probably see `petclinic-address-finder`" ... but there is no `petclinic-address-finder`... can you help? ---

Hello @fabio.iovine Mostly you have not followed the steps as per the Labs. Because we configure the APM service & restart the docker services post which these are visible under APM. Could you please review the lab documentation again. Thanks!! ---

Hi there, I did review all the steps in the documentation two times, I'm fine with the "docker ps" command - I see everything I'm supposed to see I open kibana - user: training - and set the "secret token" as written in the lab pages, save it - successfully ![Immagine 2025-07-30 114236](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/0/50a5eb75e9031e53ed0b0344342e2967eb25c835.jpeg) after that Observability \> APM \> Services shows this: ![Immagine 2025-07-30 114420](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/5/556bcd0f559854fe7fc7e0c2a39751fca65d140f.jpeg) It may help you that I moved to Lab 3.2 so I stopped docker, modified /root/start-scripts/50-petclinic-server.sh as written in the lab course pages, and after "docker restart petclinic-server"... Observability \> APM \> Services is exactly as I left it... Now, I'm quite sure I did something wrong somewhere but it is also sure that I did everything that is in the lab test cases... Fabio ---

Hello Fabio, In Lab 3.1, once you update APM integration with the secret\_token, it might take couple of minutes to see the address\_finder service in the Service Inventory. Is it appearing now ? Thank you ---

Hallo Vince, no, sorry. I moved to Lab 3.2 and 3.3, I changed config and props files for java agent and node.js agent and exit/restart a couple of times petclinic docker (docker restart petclinic-client) after I've checked the files were exactly as described in the course lab pages but nothing changed on kibana side...
