Hi,

My winlogbeat index aliases is empty, any idea why it is empty and how to include aliases in every new index?

```auto
{
  "winlogbeat-8.1.2-2022.04.15" : {
    "aliases" : { },
    "mappings" : {
      "_meta" : {
        "beat" : "winlogbeat",
        "version" : "8.1.2"
      },
      "dynamic_templates" : [
        {
          "labels" : {
            "path_match" : "labels.*",
            "match_mapping_type" : "string",
            "mapping" : {
              "type" : "keyword"
            }
          }

```

Somehow my logstash index got the aliases,

```auto
{
  "logstash-2022.04.14-000008" : {
    "aliases" : {
      "logstash" : {
        "is_write_index" : true
      }

```

Hope someone can assist me.
