If you want logs to automatically show up in Kibana you will want to enable [autorefresh in the time picker](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/search.html#autorefresh)

That happens when you turn off the timefield in your index pattern. Try recreating your index pattern, this time make sure you select a time field
