Hello Everybody,

I have a question that I have not found anywhere. I have in kibana an index pattern with a wildcard to take information from more than 1 index in elasticsearch. If I add one more index in elasticsearch, the index pattern created in kibana will take this new information from the new index in elasticsearch if the wildcard pattern of kibana matches de index in elasticsearch?

I hope I have explained well 🙂

Thanks in advance, Aleix.

Kibana does not automatically update index patterns, but there is an option in Management \> Index Patterns \> Your Index Pattern to refresh the list of fields based on what it finds in the indexes.
