No service or trace is shown on kibana when using intake api directly

Elastic Observability APM
,
1

On a osx using docker and the elk version is 7.13.2.

I am posting some stuff to apm server through http://localhost:8200/intake/v2/events and the response status is 202, however, I can't find it nowhere in Kibana. Neither in the service or trace list in APM and neither in the discovery of the apm-* index.

What am I doing wrong? How can I debug it?

Here is the body:

Hi @jodinathan , the payload you shared seems fine, I just sent it to a local APM Server and the service and trace showed up in the UI as expected. Have you checked the APM Server logs for any indicators that it has problems sending the events to Elasticsearch?

yeah, that was the problem.
thanks
