Is there a way to get a Dev Version of Watcher which does not require license. Needed for Development and testing purposes for multiple teams. ---

Hi Prashant, Watcher includes a 30-day license when you download it. If you need a trial license extension, don't hesitate to reach out to our team who can issue one. The contact-me form on our website is a good place to start: [https://www.elastic.co/contact](https://www.elastic.co/contact) If you have any issues, let me know. ---
