Filebeat-* index pattern (Can´t find it!)

I´ve installed and configured ELK (elasticsearch, logstash, kibana, and filebeat) and they are up and running on localhost:ports. But when I try to create an index pattern in Kibana after uploading my .json it can´t find "filebeat-*".

I tried to add another index pattern that matches the source and I get one step further but when I try to add timefield using the list I get "Error Too Many Requests".

Why isn´t Kibana finding "filebeat-*"?

Hello @771M771

Which version of the stack are you using?

Try running GET /_cat/indices from kibana dev tools. What is the output?

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt.
Thanks for the fast response!

When I run GET /_cat/indices in dev tools i get this output:

(I have no idea if I did this right...)

@771M771 You did it exactly right. I see a number of apm-* indices but I don't see any filebeat indices. Next step would be to look at the filebeat logs and figure out why data isn't being sent over.
