**Kibana version** :

- 7.3.2

**Elasticsearch version** :

- 7.3.2

**APM Server version** :

- APM 7.3.2

**APM Agent language and version** :

- Python Flask 4.2.2

**Original install method (e.g. download page, yum, deb, from source, etc.) and version** :

- Provided by Elastic Cloud subscription

**Fresh install or upgraded from another version?**

- Upgraded from 7.1.1

**Additional information:**

- We are using the Elastic Cloud services, so we are not running our stack locally.

**Problem:**

- There is no documentation on how to configure APM RUM for Python Flask agent, the only documentation is for node.js.

**Objective:**

- I'm trying to set up APM RUM to monitor the duration time for my web app requests.

**Current Configuration:**

```
from elasticapm.contrib.flask import ElasticAPM
app = Flask( __name__ )
app.config['ELASTIC_APM'] = {
  'SERVICE_NAME': 'FLASK-APP-PROJECT',
  'SECRET_TOKEN': '<token>',
  'SERVER_URL': '<url>',
  'METRICS_SETS': "elasticapm.metrics.sets.transactions.TransactionsMetricSet"
}

```

I appreciate any feedback or resources that you might have, feel free to ask for more information if you think there is missing detail in this post.
