Hello

We have enabled "Collect session data" and "Capture terminal output" under defend policy for linux, but we can not see "Open Session View" button under alerts(or other [relevant places](https://www.elastic.co/docs/solutions/security/investigate/session-view)).  
Do we have to enable it somewhere else?  
Servers are on Debian 12.10 or Ubuntu 24.04 and platinum license.

Regards

Peter
