Hi!  
I configured Filebeat with module kafka.

/opt/filebeat/config/filebeat.ym

```auto
filebeat.inputs:
- type: log
  enabled: false
  paths:
    - /var/log/*.log
- type: filestream
  enabled: false
  paths:
    - /var/log/*.log

processors:
  - add_host_metadata:
      when.not.contains.tags: forwarded
  - add_cloud_metadata: ~
  - add_docker_metadata: ~
  - add_kubernetes_metadata: ~

setup.kibana:
  host: "https://el2:5601"
  ssl.enabled: true
  ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/etc/certificates/salt-ca.crt"]
  ssl.certificate: "/etc/certificates/kafka-1.crt"
  ssl.key: "/etc/certificates/kafka-1.key"

setup.template.settings:
  index.number_of_shards: 1

filebeat.config.modules:
  path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml
  reload.enabled: false

output.elasticsearch:
  hosts: ["https://el1:9200", "https://el2:9200", "https://el3:9200", "https://el4:9200"]
  ssl.enabled: true
  ssl.verification_mode: "full"
  ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/etc/certificates/salt-ca.crt"]
  ssl.certificate: "/etc/certificates/kafka-1.crt"
  ssl.key: "/etc/certificates/kafka-1.key"
  username: "elastic"
  password: "Passwd1234"

```

/opt/filebeat/config/modules.d/kafka.yml

```auto
- module: kafka
  # All logs
  log:
    enabled: true
    var.paths:
      - "/opt/kafka/logs/controller.log*"
      - "/opt/kafka/logs/server.log*"
      - "/opt/kafka/logs/state-change.log*"
      - "/opt/kafka/logs/kafka-*.log*"
    var.kafka_home: /opt/kafka

```

As I understood from [Kafka module | Filebeat Reference [7.7] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/7.7/filebeat-module-kafka.html) and [Apache Kafka Monitoring with Elasticsearch, Beats, and Kibana | by Imteyaz Ahmad | Medium](https://medium.com/@ahmadimt07/apache-kafka-monitoring-with-elasticsearch-beats-and-kibana-a9caabfd4535), Dashboard [Filebeat Kafka] should be appeared in Kibana, but it did not.  
In journalctl I did not see any errors and warning about connection to Kibana and Elastic.  
Which settings are incorrect?  
Thank you.
