:::{dropdown} Synthetics - Package policies for project monitors unintentionally deleted
:::{dropdown} Synthetics: package policies for project monitors unintentionally deleted

Applies to: {{stack}}

**Details**

When upgrading to an affected version, {{kib}} might unintentionally delete package policies for Synthetics project monitors during package policy cleanup. In deployments with many project monitors (10,000+ package policies in a single space), attempts to recreate deleted policies can fail and leave your instance in a broken state.

A fix for this issue was implemented in [#248762](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/248762).

**Workaround**<br>
Trigger package policy recreation by making a dummy update to the affected project monitors (for example, add a tag). Alternatively, trigger recreation by making a dummy edit to the private location configuration.
