I just had to get Elasticsearch installed on a client site, and pulled it down to the local on DevKinsta.

Unfortunately, it looks like Elasticsearch doesn’t get enabled in DevKinsta.  
Could you confirm this?

It’s certainly possible to do, as [WP Local Docker](https://10up.github.io/wp-local-docker-docs/environments/) supports Elasticsearch.

Hi @sonicviz ! Elasticsearch on Kinsta is localhost only, thus won’t work outside of Kinsta’s servers. However, if you’re using a remote Elasticsearch cluster that you’re able to connect to, you may connect to it as normal through the Elasticsearch plugin settings. Let me know if you have any further questions on that.
