Hi Experts, Since i am new to this technology , I need your assistance to start building dashboard in ELK. I have downloaded all the 3 tools (E,L,K) . I want to create a dashboard from a syslog file . I don't know how I can get data into ELK and prepare dashboard out of it. Please suggest from where I can start.
