Hello guys,  
i hope you are doing well,  
so i'm facing a problem on the elastic siem app after parsing my logs and migrating them to ecs by logstash.  
the problem is the following error on the host/ event view :  
**Data Fetch Failure**  
**Invalid time value**  
but not on all my indexes just one of them i tried to rebuild timestamps but i still have this error.  
if just someone could tell me the source of this one

We are not all guys here 🙂  
Make sure all indexes used by SIEM app all have @timestamp field of type date

Hi Yassine,  
thanks but the thing is all my indices have type date for the @timestamp field (same mapping)

Can you post an example? maybe it's a format problem?
