Conversation
The Upgrade Assistant's deprecation detection relies entirely on local Elasticsearch and Kibana APIs (the ES deprecation info API, ES deprecation logs, and the Kibana deprecations API - see the Deprecations section on this page), with no external service dependency. This wasn't stated anywhere on this page, plan-upgrade.md, prepare-to-upgrade.md, or troubleshooting-upgrade-assistant.md, even though the repo already has established air-gapped documentation elsewhere (e.g. prebuilt-rules-airgapped.md) using this exact terminology. Added a note near the top of the page so readers evaluating whether this tool fits an air-gapped/restricted-network environment see this upfront, rather than having to infer it from the API sources listed further down.

hi Ash - I think we might be starting to call to external endpoints to return certain info, so this statement might not be 100% true soon. I'll look into how we want to talk about this and get back to you. |
