Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* Add admonition to serverless

Serverless follow up to #5513

* Update serverless to match ESS

Serverless follow up to #4695

* Fix URL variable/attribute

Should use `kibana-ref` instead of apm-app-ref since this has nothing to do with APM

* No-op change to trigger build

(i hope)
