Hello, everybody,
unfortunately I do not get any data on AWS Cloudwatch & AWS ELB with Metricbeat. With AWS Cloudwatch I only get the data for EC2 and S3.
All other modules work ec2,sqs,rds,ebs
The following settings are stored:
```auto
- module: aws
period: 300s
metrics sets:
- cloudwatch
metrics:
- namespace: "*"
credential_profile_name: default
- module: aws
period: 60s
metrics sets:
- elb
credential_profile_name: default
```
Cloudwatch is running and also metrics from ELB are displayed.
The message I get:
```auto
INFO [monitoring] log/log.go:145 Non-zero metrics in the last 30s {"monitoring": {"metrics": {"beat":{"cpu":{"system":{"ticks":31},"total":{"ticks":265,"value":265},"user":{"ticks":234}},"handles":{"open":387},"info":{"ephemeral_id":"9744af87-3654-4685-a458-59f671a71409","uptime":{"ms":156252}},"memstats":{"gc_next":13588272,"memory_alloc":6796136,"memory_total":22810928,"rss":12288},"runtime":{"goroutines":25}},"libbeat":{"config":{"module":{"running":0}},"pipeline":{"clients":1,"events":{"active":0}}}}}}
```
Does anyone have an idea?

Hi!
Is your configuration correct? I see indentation issues as well as `metrics sets` which is wrong.

Hi, Chris,
thank you for the answer.
The indentation error occurred to me only here.
What exactly do you recognize as an error? That I didn't leave any credentials? Otherwise my config looks exactly like the example.
I am now running metricbeat on an ec2 instance. This has full access to everything in the account.
```auto

metricsets:

metrics:

credential_profile_name: default
- module: aws
period: 60s
metricsets:

# credential_profile_name: default
```
The whole config works except ELB and Cloudwatch partially.
For example I don't find any fields like:
aws.cloudwatch.dimensions.LoadBalancerName
aws.cloudwatch.dimensions.FunctionName

Running into this as well. After digging into it, seems the visualizations fields are not set. They are empty when i tried to edit them.
