We are using Fleet managed Elastic agents version 7.17.4 in ECE.

Is it possible to edit the metricbeat.yml which is inside the elastic agent? I tried editing it but got "metricbeat corrupted" during the Elastic agent installation.

any suggestions or other ideas to edit the metricbeat.yml file?

Thanks in advance.
