How to search for "logname.log" in kibana?

Hello,

I'am adding filebat in many servers to send jboss logs to Logstash > Elastisearch > Kibana
I need to search for "log name" in kibana, for example "server_appname.log" but does not works.
(beat.version:5.6.3)

Any idea please?

Thanks in advance.

Why not, what happens?

"no results found"
I can see the log names under "source" tag, but I can't search any log by name.

Have you split the log name into it's own field? What is the mapping on that field?
