I created 3 indicies on my elastisearch opened up kibana and all those showed up on it. After a few days I created 2 more indicies and opened up my kibana but I only see those 3 indicies I created for the first time and not the new ones.
I tried searching for those indicies in Discover but nothing shows up.

Hi,
Can you provide more details about how you create indicies and how you check if they exists ?

I create them with a curl request `curl -X PUT 'localhost:9200/index-name'`
This is how I list all my indicies to see if they got created `curl http://localhost:9200/_aliases?pretty=true`

To see data in Kibana, you need to create an index pattern that matches the index names: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html)
