Hi

I'm trying to use monitor type browser in Synthetics monitors but when creating the monitor it gets stuck in "pending" indefinitely. i Using private locations but don´t works

My architecture is:

- version: 8.14.0
- eck on premise (not cloud)
- Fleet policy
- Agent elastic with [docker.elastic.co/beats/elastic-agent-complete](http://docker.elastic.co/beats/elastic-agent-complete)
- private Locations

The error message I get is: factory could not create monitor: monitor type browser does not exist, valid types are [http synthetics/http icmp synthetics/icmp tcp synthetics/tcp]

Script

```auto
step('Go to https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/observability/current/synthetics-role-write.html', async () => {

await page.goto('https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/observability/current/synthetics-role-write.html');
});
step('Click internal:role=link[name="Manage data retention"i]', async () => {
await page.getByRole('link', { name: 'Manage data retention' }).click();
});

```

Could you help me?  
thanks in advance

Hi @Cristian_Pereyra,

elastic-agent-complete v8.14.1 was released to fix the issue you're experiencing: [[Heartbeat] Move import to cmd for agentbeat by emilioalvap · Pull Request #39818 · elastic/beats · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/39818).  
The error should go away if you upgrade to 8.14.1 or latter.

Hope that helps!
