Hello,  
I started to take the X-Pack Machine learning e-learning class and the guide in attached file, X-Pack\_Machine\_Learning\_6.1, is outdated. It's available here: ([https://training.elastic.co/login.html#/courses/7091/modules/17481-creating-a-distinct-count-job](https://training.elastic.co/login.html#/courses/7091/modules/17481-creating-a-distinct-count-job))

It works fine for 6.2.4 (I haven't tried anything older), but doesn't work with 6.3 and 6.4.

What doesn't work: steps 1.6 (which doesn't matter much), 1.8 (which matters)

Hi Martin,

I didn't see any attachment to your message. If I can understand what doesn't work, I can notify the training curriculum developers.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! We will update the training materials as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can skip the steps where you set up Security. You can run the Machine Learning labs perfectly fine without enabling Security.
