Hey All, This might be a simple question but it is just really stumping me. How do you link Indices to your Kibana dashboard and if you have many indices how do you search all or each individually? I have all services running at the latest versions, but Kibana keeps saying there are no indices.

Hi Pete, Please look at this [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/kibana/current/using-kibana-for-the-first-time.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/kibana/current/using-kibana-for-the-first-time.html) artical for setting up indices: > **[Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale](https://www.elastic.co)** > > Power insights and outcomes with the Elasticsearch Platform and AI. See into your data and find answers that matter with enterprise solutions designed to help you build, observe, and protect. Try Elasticsearch free today. If you have multiple indices, then mentioned them all with a comma separater in Index Settings. Thanks and Regards, Ravi.
