Hi,

I deleted all the indicies from elasticsearch but they are still exists on Kibana monitoring with the status DELETED. How i can remove also them from there?

curl -XDELETE '[http://localhost:9200/filebeat-](http://localhost:9200/filebeat-)_/'  
curl -XDELETE '[http://localhost:9200/winlogbeat-](http://localhost:9200/winlogbeat-)_/'

Best Regards,  
Thanos

Unfortunately there is no supported way to do this currently. Feel free to file a feature request for it in github though. [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues)

If I remember rightly, that's the reason:  
The deleted indexes are still displayed if they existed within the defined time period (top right). The indices should disappear immediately if the time span is shortened.

Yes you are right! I can confirm on that.
