Kibana does not show elasticsearch data

[debarun (debarun ghosh)]

Hi,

I am using elasticsearch 5.2.2 with kibana 5.2.2, but kibana does not show elasticserch data.

when i remove "Index contains time-based events ", i can see the data.

Regards,
Debarun.

Does the mapping of your data have a field that is mapped as timestamp?

You can check by running a query for the mapping:

GET my_index/my_type/_mapping

The result should have a field that's mapped as a time field:

...
        "properties": {
          "@timestamp": {
            "type": "date"
          },
...

See the docs for how to map a field as a date datatype: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/date.html
