Hi, I'm using Elasticsearch and Kibana services in Azure and I have logstash on-prem. I want to have filebeat push logs to logstash. I'm trying to load the Kibana dashboard for filebeat using the endpoint URLs for Elasticsearch and Kibana as seen below: > filebeat setup -e > -E output.logstash.enabled=false > -E output.elasticsearch.hosts=['ELASTIC ENDPOINT URL'] > -E output.elasticsearch.username=USER > -E output.elasticsearch.password=PW > -E setup.kibana.host=KIBANA ENDPOINT URL However, I get this error when trying to run that command: > Loading dashboards (Kibana must be running and reachable) > 2019-11-04T12:47:12.335-0800 INFO kibana/client.go:117 Kibana url: [https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243](https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243) > 2019-11-04T12:47:13.351-0800 INFO add\_cloud\_metadata/add\_cloud\_metadata.go:347 add\_cloud\_metadata: hosting provider type not detected. > 2019-11-04T12:48:42.336-0800 ERROR instance/beat.go:877 Exiting: error connecting to Kibana: fail to get the Kibana version: HTTP GET request to [https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243/api/status](https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243/api/status) fails: fail to execute the HTTP GET request: Get [https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243/api/status:](https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243/api/status:) net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers).

Hey! Could you try to `curl` the Kibana API directly? Like `curl https://3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243/api/status`. (you might need to embed the username and password in the url like `https://some_user:some_pass:3859ca0bd01c418e91b537ccd48171f2.eastus2.azure.elastic-cloud.com:9243/api/status`) This will might tell us more about the reason of failing. ---
