After I downgraded from Filebeat 7.3.2 to 7.1.1. and my elasticsearch remains 7.3.2.

Then I encounter that filebeat cannot load the dashboards, and I followed by reloading the index and also the dashboards, but still having the same issue.

Please advise. Thanks

Secondly, may I know these rights is it correct? I keep getting this error: `error loading /usr/share/filebeat/kibana/7/dashboard/Filebeat-logstash-log.json: . Response: {"objects":[{"id":"0b1dace0-cbdb-11e7-9852-73e0a9df1bb6-ecs","type":"visualization","updated_at":"2019-10-23T09:41:58.795Z","version":"WzQyMTIyNiwyNl0=","attributes":{"description":"","kibanaSavedObjectMeta":{"searchSourceJSON":"{\"filter\":[],\"quer...

Dashboard configuration can change between versions, it's possible the newer version set something up that the older one doesn't know how to process. One thing to try is to [rerun the dashboard setup command](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/load-kibana-dashboards.html) with your current filebeat version.

The permissions in your screenshot are probably ok but it looks like the file itself (`Filebeat-logstash-log.json`) is missing... that also makes it seem like a broken or incomplete dashboard setup.

There is this file located in /usr/share/filebeat/kibana/7/dashboard/, but strangely the system has issue loading it.

And my -filebeat-\* index in still receiving data daily.

How can I adjust the amount of data collected on the nginx.access file?

Currently am collecting the following info in the log files only.  
`"GET /lta/image/ HTTP/1.1" 200 1866 "https://web.org/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/78.0.3904.97 Safari/537.36"`
