It is possible to merge to indices in kibana. In two indices some columns are same and some not. I want to merge that indices into one. I have merge two indices but they are appended. Means I get the appended data one over another.

Index 1: columns =\> ["CLIENT CODE","CLIENT NAME","ANNUAL INCOME","NET WORTH","SCANNED EVIDENCE"]  
Index 2: columns =\> ["CLIENT CODE","CLIENT NAME","CLIENT CREATION DATE","KYC Status"]

I want to see output index should be like that.  
output Index3 = \> ["CLIENT CODE","CLIENT NAME","ANNUAL INCOME","NET WORTH","SCANNED EVIDENCE","CLIENT CREATION DATE","KYC Status"]

You cannot join two indices like this in Kibana, no.

You will need to reindex your data into a single index, or use an alias to view both of them at once.
