Missing Elemental plugin on Rancher 2.8.5

[phrreakk]

What steps did you take and what happened: Following the directions at Elemental the visual way fails with no error.

What did you expect to happen: Under Extensions, I expect to see the Elemental OS Management extension

Anything else you would like to add: Clean Rancher 2.8.5 install running on k3s per support matrix.

Environment:

• Elemental release version (use cat /etc/os-release):
• Rancher version: v2.8.5
• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version): Client Version: v1.28.13+k3s1 Kustomize Version: v5.0.4-0.20230601165947-6ce0bf390ce3 Server Version: v1.28.13+k3s1
• Cloud provider or hardware configuration: On-prem VM running Rocky 9

Hello, Elemental UI extension is part of Rancher Prime only so you need to have a Prime subscription. We are in the process to rewrite the documentation. About doing a POC with the UI without Prime, we do not have a clear status on how to do it. cc @kkaempf

I was able to add the extension by adding this repo to my App Repositories.

Hello, Elemental UI extension is part of Rancher Prime only so you need to have a Prime subscription.

Are you saying my elemental UI plugin will disappear when I update rancher to 2.8.5 and I can not install it to fresh clusters? What about elemental in general? Will it be prime only?
