Hi there,  
can it be that journalbeats has no predifined dashboards on board?  
Doing this:  
/usr/share/journalbeat/bin# ./journalbeat setup -e -c /etc/journalbeat/journalbeat.yml --dashboards  
I do not get anything in Kibana.  
cheers  
Stefano

PS There is no journalbeat tag 😉

There does not appear to be dashboard for journalbeat at this time.

Plus minor tip, in general you should run setup without the --dashboards, the following command will load all resources available, mappings, dashboards, ingest pipelines, index patterns etc whatever is available. Today is looks like only the index patterns is available.

```
journalbeat setup -e -c /etc/journalbeat/journalbeat.yml
```
