We are using the official 7.6.2 metricbeat docker image, but the Istio beta module isn't present in that image. We'd like to try out that module; what's the best way to add it? Do we need to build a custom docker image? ---

Hi @Jesse_Bye! The `istio` module will be available with `7.7` version which is coming really soon. If you want to make use of it in the meanwhile you can build Metricbeat from source (master branch) inside a custom container image of yours. ---
