Can't create index pattern if you have more than 100 indices

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

I have over 100 indices in my ES cluster and I am trying to create an index pattern, but only the first 100 indices alphabetically show up. Also the wizard does not let you continue i.e. hit next unless the pattern matches one of those first 100 indices. How can I create an index pattern for an index which does not appear in that first 100 list?

I am running ES 7.3.1 and Kibana 7.3.1 but had the same issue with ES and Kibana 6.8.3

Hello Alec,

Yes, 100 is the hard limit for index patterns. There is the option of Elasticsearch Curator however. Check out this related thread for a few helpful links.

Aaron
