Hello there, I was wondering if it's possible to generate log files using kibana's dashboard , I mean use the logs which are already filtered and displayed on the kibana's dashboard and put this information in a file or diferent files for each type of log. ---

Hi @leantw1ce, I can not think of a way to do this right now. A similar enhancement request is tracked in [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1992](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1992). Feel free to add to it or open a new one if you feel your use case is too different. ---
