## Add data to a serverless project

From the main navigation menu, select **Add data**. Select what you want to monitor and how you want to monitor it, then follow the instructions for your system.
- **Logs Essentials**: For more on adding data to a Logs Essentials project, refer to [Get started with Logs Essentials](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/7815/solutions/observability/get-started/logs-essentials).
- **Observability Complete**: For more on adding data to a Observability Complete project, refer to [Get started with Elastic Observability](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/7815/solutions/observability/get-started).


## Upgrade from Observability Logs Essentials to Observability Complete

<warning>
  Upgrading from Observability Logs Essentials to Observability Complete is permanent and is not reversible.
</warning>

To access the additional features available in Observability Complete, upgrade your Observability project feature tier by completing the following steps:
1. From the [Elastic Cloud Console](https://cloud.elastic.co), select **Manage** next to the Observability Logs Essentials serverless project you want to upgrade.
2. Next to **Project features**, select **Edit**.
3. Select **Observability Complete**.
4. Select **Save** to complete the upgrade.


## Integration availability

In Logs Essentials projects, integration search results only show Observability Integrations that support collecting logs. Search results won't show Integrations that only collect metrics. When editing an integration policy, you can only edit log data streams.
<note>
  Installing an integration package installs all its assets, including dashboards for both logs and metrics. Metrics-only dashboards are empty because metrics collection is not available in Logs Essentials projects.
