Hi

i have a kibana 5.5.0 installed in my ubuntu machine. I have a index called filebeat-\* in it. What i need is i need to get datas from the speecified index like i used curl (GET metricbeat-2017.07.19/\_search) command to get details. I don't know i did that right... Likewise i need to get details from metricbeat, heartbeat, packetbeat indexex also. If anybody can have a solution to this issue is welcome.

Thanks in advance,  
Dharani Kumar

Hi Dharani,

You need to run beats for all the different beats you want, ingest them in to ES and then create index patterns in Kibana: [https://www.elastic.co/products/beats](https://www.elastic.co/products/beats)

By default, beats write to 9200. So you don't have to do curl to add the data.

This is our documentation for it: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/libbeat/current/index.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/libbeat/current/index.html)

Thanks,  
Bhavya
