I've deleted all data from elasticsearch which included indicies  
invoke-webrequest -method delete [http://localhost:9200/\*](http://localhost:9200/*)  
After the deletion the server was rebooted  
I'm able to see filebeat-6.2.4 under [http://localhost:9200/\_template](http://localhost:9200/_template) but it is not showing in kibana

GET \_cat/indices  
yellow open winlogbeat-6.2.4-2018.06.20 bpfQeGqlTpWBkGv8Jf7Ctw 3 1 192 0 912.7kb 912.7kb  
green open .kibana -TZavKI7RduCG6pjgwqw5A 1 0 3 1 24.3kb 24.3kb

Is there a way to import the indicies back ?

here is flebeat.yml file

filebeat.prospectors:

```
type: log
paths:
- C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC200*
fields:
iis: true
output.logstash:
hosts: ["sna-wsus01:5044"]

```

The filebeat log file is empty

It looks like filebeat is shipping the logs, when I run .\filebeat.exe -c filebeat.yml -e -d "\*" I get the following output:

I still see no indices in Kibana
