AWS CloudWatch not sending logs - AWS AMI

Morning all, I have 100+ servers working well with the old cloudwatch/logs agent and it appears they have a new version that they are combining, so the cloudwatch agent does it all. So I ran the wizard, most of the defaults and selected the one log that I want to send up but it's simply not showing. So I did run the wizard to setup the metrics AND the log I want, so far, this is what I have in the logs section;

/opt/aws/amazon-cloudwatch-agent/bin/config.json has the following log section;

        "logs": {
                "logs_collected": {
                        "files": {
                                "collect_list": [
                                        {
                                                "file_path": "/var/log/health.log",
                                                "log_group_name": "app-health",
                                                "log_stream_name": "{instance_id}",
                                                "retention_in_days": 14
                                        }
                                ]
                        }
                }
        },

The agent is running; /opt/aws/amazon-cloudwatch-agent/bin/amazon-cloudwatch-agent-ctl -a status { "status": "running", "starttime": "2023-12-07T15:26:36+0000", "configstatus": "configured", "version": "1.300031.0b313" }

/opt/aws/amazon-cloudwatch-agent/logs/amazon-cloudwatch-agent.log shows nothing but info, which is normally my goto, the only thing I found was odd was the line; "Reading json config file path: /opt/aws/amazon-cloudwatch-agent/etc/amazon-cloudwatch-agent.json"

As that file doesn't exist, it uses the other path, but before I look to deep, I wanted to confirm that the whole awslogs process has been moved into the cloudwatch agent and I am on the right path. Permissions for that box to write to cloudwatch is there, I can telnet to the port, etc. so to me its a simple config that is not correct out of the box.
