Hello, I'm currently using Kibana with Fluentd and Metricbeats. I have 2 indexes : logstash-\* and metricbeat-\* In the Discover menu of Kibana, I have the choice to sort the results by index, but this is not working anymore. I mean, if I chose logstash, I have result from logstash and from metricbeats. I've try to restart Kibana/Elasticsearch. I have remove all the indexes to restart from scratch. I've also check in the Management/Index Patterns and they are both well defined. In the Discover menu, I can check and see that the results have the right index. When I choose logstash index, I can see in the Available Fields, the ones from metricbeats and it's the same if I choose metricbeats index. Any idea where it's coming from ? I have no errors or nothing strange in Kibana's logs Thank you, Best Regards, Aurelie ---

So, you have both index patterns defined in Kibana, and you're saying that you choose the `logstash-*` pattern on the sidebar, like so: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/5/95710e2b723ff4dcc385dcc9580011b835a54231.png) But, in the documents that are shown below the chart, you see are seeing documents from the metricbeat index? ---

Hello, Yes, for example if I choose logstash-\* pattern on the sidebar, I'm going to see documents from logstash index and from metricbeat index. Moreover, in the side bar, I can see the fields for metricbeat in the logstash index as unknow, like this : ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/b/a/baff672d26cbf7c7a34477971b60f63975982b8f.png) It's normal that it's unknow because they are not defined in the definition of the logstash index (I've checked). They should just not be there. Thank you for your help, Aurelie ---

Wow, very strange. Does refreshing the fields in _Management \> Index Patterns_ help? It sounds like you've looked at [the field mappings] you have in `logstash-*` indices, but just so I'm clear, if you do, you don't see the beats fields, right? Also, what version of the stack are you running? ---

Yes that's very strange ! I've done refreshment of the fields a couple times; but it doesn't change anything. My logstash index is defined as default index, by the way. Yes in the field mapping of logstash, I don't see the beats fields, and in the field mapping of metricbeats, I don't see the logstash fields. Everything seems right there. I'm running the 5.2.2 version of the stack and the all stack have the same version. ---
