I am very new to this filebeat shipping thing. Once I ship the log to kibana I am getting so many meta data field both for kibana and filebeat...now I can filter it in kibana visualization but is there any way to filter out/exclude those field during log ingestion . Thanks in advance..

Try this format instead of dot notation. remove_field => [ "message","[log][file][path]","[agent][hostname]","[agent][id]" ]
