Hello,

I've got a request to see the swap usage of individual processes. I've looked around in the metricbeat docs and field list and it seem like currently that's not captured. Is there any other way to capture this? Are there any plans to have this optionally supported in metricbeat in the future?

Best Regards,  
Jo

You're right, there doesn't seem to be any current by-process swap data in the `system/process` metricset. I also don't see any current plans for it. I've created an issue here: [https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/18863](https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/18863)
