Kibana is not taking logstash-\* as index pattern...I'm using 7.4.0 of ELK . However, when I'm using Spring boot for generating logs and running Kibana on localhost:5601 it's not taking the default index pattern configuration i.e logstash-\* ?

Hey @Ekta1234, welcome to the discussion boards!
Can you elaborate on this?
> "Kibana is not taking logstash-\* as an index pattern
What is Kibana showing you when you navigate to the Index Patterns screen?
What is the result of running `GET _cat/indices` against elasticsearch?
