Hello, I have Filebeats, Logstash, Elasticsearch and Kibana running on a VM - I have created a template with a mapping and built visualizations and dashboards with this data. The data is there and accessible. However, only a very small subset of all the data available is being shown in the _Discover_ functionality, plus the JSON shown for each entry (I presume these are the documents) show these few fields instead of the full data I would expect to comprise a document. When searching for fields other than these, I am not able to find anything and presume this issue originates from the same root cause. Any ideas? ---

Mind showing a screenshot of what you're seeing? Have you adjusted your time filter (top right corner) to include more than the last 15 minutes worth of data? ---

Searching for the data also does not show it which I assume is a result of this asymmetry. > Have you adjusted your time filter (top right corner) to include more than the last 15 minutes worth of data I can see data - I played with the time filter just in case but I get the same results. ---

Interesting, can you try accessing this data directly via the "dev tools \> console" app? If the data in Elasticsearch looks that way too then maybe the issue is upstream. ---

What exactly do you want me to look up? I checked the index documents and as expected I get the same data as the JSON blob from the _Discover_ tab. ---

Fix for posterity - `_source` field was set to `false`, setting this to `true` fixed the issue. Thanks for the help guys 🙂 ---
