Elastic Agent customization

Elastic Agent comes with a curated list of OTel Collector components and some opinionated configuration samples.

If your use case requires additional components, you have two options:

1. Build a custom Collector
2. Open a request to add those components to Elastic Agent.

Requests for adding new components will be reviewed on the basis of popularity, technical suitability, and other criteria.

For instructions on how to build a custom Collector, refer to the OpenTelemetry documentation.
