Hi,  
I have installed Auditbeat which is working fine. However, when I try to query data related to user creating, deleting files which uses the file\_integrity module, it shows records/documents without the user.names in it. Even the process.args is blank. This does not provide information on who did and how was it done.

How do I setup to populate the fields for this data.
