I connected elastic ai assistant to my local llm. when I active streaming control in ai assistant settings, this error is shown: Error: Response from LLM API is empty or undefined.  
I check the request which is sent to llm, it does not contain "stream" field.  
the kibana version is: 8.14.3

Could you try with 8.16.0? I think there's now a OpenAI compatible service which might the one to use.

I have not permit to install any other versions of kibana. I should use 8.14.3. do you think this is a bug in this version?

I don't know. I'd always try the latest version to check if the problem can be reproduced in a more recent version.  
Specifically on the AI domain. Things are moving super fast in this area.

Could you share how you created the connection? Which license level do you have?
