Postgres 10 added few more columns to the `pg_stat_activity` which can be exported by the metricbeats module. I noticed that we use 9.2 at the moment.

I would be happy to send in a patch for the "activity" metricset. However, I'm a bit skeptical about how it could affect the other metricsets in the "postgres" module.

Is there a roadmap for adding support for the future versions?

Hi Mario,

Thanks for the reply. I had, in fact, opened a feature request issue on the repo before posting here: [https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/13464](https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/13464)  
Can you take a look at it?

Thanks  
Kshitij
