Hi there,

I want to know which tool do i have to use to automatically index data from my MySQL table (where i also do changes in the existing data) to my index in Kibana.  
I've been trying modifying the _mysql.conf_ and then running it with logstash but nothing works.  
I also tried creating a _transform_ action but my configuration didn't work (there is no info out there to create _transforms_ from Kibana).

I want to know if it's able to do it from here:

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

You need to use Logstash or something similar, Kibana cannot do that for you.

If you are having Logstash issues, it'd be worth creating a new topic in that category with as much info as you can provide.
