Playing around with the UI and I go to install Metricbeat under monitoring, just click the out of the box button "Install Metricbeat" and it comes back with: > Setup mode is not available > > You do not have the necessary permissions to do this. To what permissions is it referring? Where do you change them? I tried adding `xpack.security.enabled=false` to my environment variables, but that didn't change anything. ---

@grantcurell, Can you provide a little more detail? What UI? Can you provide screenshots? ---
