Hello  
I am new to ELK .  
I am facing a problem while using kibana I am working on a VM where in I have all my three containers running on docker i.e logstash elasticsearch and kibana  
Logstash works fine there and i can see the logs being printed in the cmd prompt also the index name is reflected on kibana but I am not able to make graphs as discover window no result found.  
Regards  
Gaurav

Do you have your date organized by timestamp? In the discover window, on right top corner you can choose the timestamp of the data.

By default the time filter is set to the last 15 minutes. Change that to a longer duration to view the data. [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/set-time-filter.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/set-time-filter.html)

Thanks
