Hi,

this is the config I am using:

```
filebeat.inputs:
- type: log
  paths:
    - /Users/peter/es-stack/datasets/nyc_collision_data.csv

output.elasticsearch:
  hosts: ["localhost:9200"]
  index: "nyc_visionzero"
  pipeline: "nyc_collision"

setup.template.enabled: false

```

I am trying to import the test data using this approach with example data:

> **[elastic/examples](https://github.com/elastic/examples/tree/master/Exploring%2520Public%2520Datasets/nyc_traffic_accidents)**
>
> Home for Elasticsearch examples available to everyone. It's a great way to get started. - elastic/examples

Unfortunately the index created and ingesting the data in elasticsearch 7.1 is still the default of "filebeat-7.1etc".

Can you help out?

Using Elasticsearch 7.1 and filebeat 7.1.

I have found it!

When I was checking the logs I saw that the ILM is default enabled. after disabling that, the index was triggered correctly..

The ending configuration for people looking at this:

```
filebeat.inputs:
- type: log
  paths:
    - /Users/peter/es-stack/datasets/nyc_collision_data.csv

output.elasticsearch:
  hosts: ["localhost:9200"]
  index: nyc_visionzero
  pipeline: nyc_collision

setup.ilm.enabled: false
setup.template.enabled: false
```
