Hi David, I installed Elasticsearch version 7.16.3 And Kibana. Now I had written one script to create index and add some data in that index . But I want to import the data of CSV file to Elasticsearch using PHP . I'm not able to write that script.

I'm not good at PHP so I can't help.

Why do you want to use PHP for this? I mean that you can use other tools like Logstash, filebeat...

Yes I can use logstash .... But it's easy.... I was just discovering the ways to ingest data.... I had done it using python also.... But in php it seems tough
