Hi - I am using the new(er) Okta and PANW filebeat modules.

How do i say " **send the okta logs to the okta index and the panw logs to the panw index**"

I have tried this to create an index based of the `fields.event.module` field.

```auto
output.elasticsearch:
 index: "%{[fields.event.module]:other}-%{[agent.version]}-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}"

setup.template.name: "index-%{[beat.version]}"
setup.template.pattern: "index-%{[beat.version]}-*"

```

I'm not quite sure if I understand your problem. Did you run filebeat setup?
