Error extracting container ID when using Fleet-managed Docker integration

[DougR]

I am attempting to monitor docker container logs and metrics using the Fleet-managed Docker integration with Elastic Agent. The metrics are ingesting as expected, however logs are not being ingested as expected. I've validated that container logs are where the integration expects them to be (/var/lib/docker/containers/${docker.container.id}/*-json.log).

When I set the log level to debug for the Elastic Agent, I see the following in the agent logs:

12:47:01.468
elastic_agent.filebeat
[elastic_agent.filebeat][debug] Error while extracting container ID from source path: index is out of range for field 'log.file.path'

The inputs section of the policy being generated by Fleet is:

Error while extracting container ID from source path: index is out of range for field

In doing some research, I found Issue #27216 for the Kubernetes integration. Based on this, I added the following to my Docker integration processors:

- add_docker_metadata:
    match_source_index: 4

This resolved the issue.

I will submit a issue for this.
