Possible API key documentation improvements

Open xrmx opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

Got some feedback about api key documentation reference here https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-python/blob/693318c3bb28e53e85d96352136b280e522a592d/docs/reference/configuration.md?plain=1#L265

  • I think we may want to remove the tech preview warning since for some platforms it's the only way of authentication
  • We may want to suggest to get the api key from kibana instead of the apm-server command

The APM Server CLI tool for creating API Keys was never GA and has been deprecated since 8.6, and finally removed in 9.0. Please take a look at Create an API key in the Applications UI link from the apm-server docs - likely best to link to the same.
