Hi, I am creating a tool that uses logstash+kibana+elasticsearch. My basic concern is that i want elasticsearch to search only in a particular set of logs. I will have many customers and i want to allow them to search for logs only from their system. How do i add filters to kibana, to only search a particulater set of logs. i want to filter logs based on a tag. To get me started could someone help me filter logs coming back from elastic search based on the message(query).
