Hi,
Now the elasticsearch has many indexes. These indexes pattern like aaa-2016\_12\_14.log and bbb-2016\_12\_14.log and others. And it will generate new index everyday, it pattern will be the xxx-YYYY\_mm\_dd.I want the kibana can automatic import these index to the index pattern. These index patterns will similarly like the aaa,bbb and so on.
Thanks for your reply.

There's not currently a way to do that.
