+.Most Fleet installed integrations are now read-only and labelled with a *Managed* tag in the Kibana UI 
+[%collapsible]
+====
+*Details* +
+Integration content installed by {fleet} is no longer editable. This content is tagged with *Managed* in the {kib} UI, and is Elastic managed. This content cannot be edited or deleted, however managed visualizations, dashboards, and saved searches can be cloned. The clones can be customized.
+When cloning a dashboard the cloned panels become entirely independent copies that are unlinked from the original configurations and dependencies. 
+Managed content relating to specific visualization editors such as Lens, TSVB, and Maps, the clones retain the original reference configurations. The same applies to editing any saved searches in a managed visualization.
