Metricbeat 6.7.1 - can't import dashboards

Elastic Stack Beats

Fresh install of metricbeat on a box also running ES/Kibana, all at 6.7.1. When I run "metricbeat setup --dashboards" I get the following error;

I'm not seeing any authentication issues in my ES logs. I'm running ReadOnlyRest plugin for authentication but the user has permissions to all actions do I don't think its that. It looks as though it appears to install the index template fine.

Checked metricbeat.json and it appears valid.
