hi, I can create visualisations and dashboards and it will display the data just fine. However, when a new document gets loaded to my elasticsearch index then it seems to drop all the data and my visualisations display nothing. Sorry new to elasticsearch/kibana etc. so please do let me know what would be useful for you to see, to be able to help me. Thank you! James ---

Hey @JamesTh, indexing a new document shouldn't be dropping your data or affecting existing visualizations in that way. Would you mind describing how you're indexing new documents? ---
