Elastic Observability APM

Hello,

I'm using Elastic Stack 6.5.4 and after a new install I get following message when I go to APM app (via Kibana):

There's no APM index pattern available. To use the Query bar, please choose to import the APM index pattern in the Setup Instructions.

I do have apm-* in Index Patterns and follow Setup page/APM:

  • APM Server status --- You have correctly setup APM-Server
  • APM Agents --- Data successfully received from one or more agents
  • Load Kibana objects --- 32 of 32 objects already exist. Click 'Confirm overwrite' to import and overwrite existing objects. Any changes to the objects will be lost. , after confirmed and get 32 saved objects successfully added

Thank you very much

Hi,

This might be caused by a bug affecting 6.5 where the APM index pattern sometimes cannot be found if you have more than ~20 index patterns.
This has been fixed in 6.6: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/26245

Can you please see how many index patterns you have listed in the Mangement section?
Thanks!

Hi @sqren,
Thank you for your help, we have more than 30 index. Upgrading to 6.6 fix it.
Thanks!
