I'm unable to import a CSV file to Elasticsearch using the Data Visualizer. I get to upload the file and see the file stats but after that when I type the name of the index the import button remains gray and can't import the data. [Screenshot at Aug 19 20-47-11]

Does test.index already exist? [image] Just tested that and in 7.3.1 it gives you an error below if it does. Have you tried other index names?

Thanks for the quick reply. So, I was working with version 7.9.0 and after seeing your answer I tried with version 7.3.1. It actually works, I can click on import but then I get the following error [Screenshot at Aug 19 23-53-48] I also tried many other index names but same error.

It did work when I unchecked the option create index pattern. Thank you

However, I still need to create the index in order to access the Dashboard but I keep getting the error : Error creating index pattern Forbidden

When you click advanced you can create and edit the index pattern. Or you can create one after you make the index in Management -> Index Patterns. But I don't understand why this isn't working for you as is.

See this [image] Import CSV on basic license [7.9.0] Kibana Hi, Thanks for reporting this. This is a known issue that we're currently working on. The fix will be in 7.9.1. Regards, James

Yes that's what I tried but I keep getting the same error when creating the index using the index Patterns Management. [Screenshot at Aug 20 09-55-02] I also tested with all time filter field names but not working.
