There's a few things we'll need to do on this one @mimol91. First can you rebase this on main and update the PR. And then also because of how the documentation testing works we either need to break this change out (so that in the test it's not deleting the index) or probably the easiest thing to do is to move the new section to the bottom of that page of the documentation so that the last thing to happen is the index gets deleted. I believe that will make the CI happy (at least worth a shot).

I cannot see CI result.
Is there anything that I can do?

Let me rerun CI and take a look myself and see if I can help; I'll try to do that today if I can find some time

ok was able to determine the problem. The index in your docs update is a protected index name. We just need to change all references in your addition to a different index name something like index_to_remove instead of logs-nginx.access-prod (there's two references I believe) and it should pass the CI. I'm happy to do that and validate it works if you want to give me write access to your branch on your fork or feel free to do that and I'll kick off CI as soon as I see you make the change! Thanks for being patient with me here.

Fingers crossed this will work
