Hi it seems you are on windows, and chromium failed to launch, are you using the headless Chrome Windows artifacts that we released for reporting? You can find it here [Release headless-chrome dependencies for puppeteer-core version 1.19.0 · opendistro-for-elasticsearch/kibana-reports · GitHub](https://github.com/opendistro-for-elasticsearch/kibana-reports/releases/tag/chromium-1.12.0.0) ---
