Elasticsearch : Is there a way to get an alert when a new agent joins the fleet?

Question

When a new agent joins the fleet, I want to make a few notes on my application. Is it possible to get a notification whenever a new agent joins to fleet?

I checked elasticsearch watcher but haven't found solution so far.

Tldr;

There are no built in mechanism to perform such a task.

Nonetheless it is possible to create it, but it will be a bit of a hack.

Use the .fleet-agents index which won't be accessible in the 8.x releases
Use the Kibana agent api which is in experimental state.

Thank you. We are using 8.x. I'll try out the api. – Krishna Teja Nov 01 '22 at 10:41
