I have a metricbeat enrolled and it's status is updating fine.

I am using Elastic Cloud so it's not a license or security issue that I am aware of. I have tried both token and user/name password and both enroll successfully no data comes through. My previous configuration using .yml direct worked fine.

I have no hosts in the host textbox that was giving me errors.

I have a very simple configuration  
cpu.metrics:

- percentages  
core.metrics:
- percentages  
process.include\_top\_n:  
enabled: true  
by\_cpu: 10  
by\_memory: 10

However no data is coming through, there are no errors in any of the logs and I'm stumped.

Any help would be appreciated.

here is the records from the logs.

No I have been unable to do you have a simple config that should work? It's not clear what should go in the config and I dont know whether it's my syntax or something else that I am not doing properly.
