[BUG] Remove "Last updated by fields" from the UI

[AWSHurneyt]

What is the bug? The SearchMonitor API is not returning user information on a security-enabled cluster.

How can one reproduce the bug? Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a monitor.
2. Go to devtools.
3. Execute the API call below.
4. The response will not contain user information.

GET _plugins/_alerting/monitors/_search
{"query": {"match_all": {}}}

What is the expected behavior? The response should contain some user information as the alerting dashboards plugin is expected to display Last updated by on two pages.

What is your host/environment?

• OS: mac OS
• Version: 13.4.1 (22F82)
• Plugins: Alerting and alerting dashboards v2.9

Do you have any screenshots? These two pages in the UI should display Last updated by; but the necessary info isn't in the API response.

Do you have any additional context? This is the API response for the monitor referenced in the screenshots above.

GET _plugins/_alerting/monitors/_search
{"query": {"match_all": {}}}

Looks like this is an intentional change to the SearchMonitor API. https://github.com/opensearch-project/alerting/pull/201/files#diff-ef8587739e7e1b5013d416eb7f9168a413b20daa72dc01f8f0e436d5bf113367R149

@zengyan-amazon recommended removing the Last updated by fields from the UI. Running this change by @kamingleung from UX.

[kamingleung]

@AWSHurneyt Removing the Last updated by makes sense. LGTM.

[AWSHurneyt]

Transferring this issue to the alerting dashboards repo since this change will be on the frontend.

New Goal

[ ] Remove the Last updated by fields from the UI (e.g., from the Monitors tab, and the monitors details page) [ ] Backport these changes to the 1.2 and up versions.

I can work on this issue!

[AWSHurneyt]

I can work on this issue!

Sorry @tanupa ! Just seeing your comment now. PR #767 addresses this issue, it's just a matter of backporting it now. If you like, you could take a look at that PR to see which automatic backports failed, and manually create backport PRs for them. Otherwise, you can ignore this issue; I'm just leaving it open because the change hasn't finished backporting.

Hi @AWSHurneyt

Could I take this issue?

I have created the PRs for all the failed backports in #767

Thanks, KC

[lezzago]

@kohinoor98 please refer the original PR that solved the issue. Also when making the backports, please be cherrypick the original commit to make sure these backport commits track the original commit that fixed the problem.

[kohinoor98]

@lezzago on it! Once I will go ahead and cherry-pick the original commit.
