Hi all,

Fairly new to Elasticsearch and I'm working on discovering all it's features as I go along.

I've finally got Metricbeat, Filebeat and Heartbeat data being shipped to my cloud instance of elastic search (in that order). But I'm stumped as to why Filebeat and Heartbeat docs aren't able to be selected in the "Discover" section of Kibana.

As you can see from the screenshots, Metricbeat is an option but not the other beats.

Does anyone know what I have to do in order to have the docs available in Discover?

This is interesting. Which version of the stack are you on?

Thanks,
