@@ -150,6 +150,26 @@ Before starting {beatname_uc}, modify the user credentials in

 <<privileges-to-publish-events,authorized to publish events>>.


Either use {beatname_uc} or {beatname_lc} instead of "Winlogbeat" and "winlogbeat" respectively.

@andrewkroh I updated them. But in the PR, I don't see them getting transformed into "Winlogbeat" and "winlogbeat". Is that applied during the CI?
