logs are showing in index in Discover page. but not showing in dashboard. need help? here are my index patterns: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/a/9a526ca31bfc6545d886fe38287375b1f28a900d.png) here are log lines : ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/2/7288606f85369d7cd9068555f8691b639c7616bc.png) but here in dashboard i can't see. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/6/069ead1c6b272d1f52ad7c83611114b4f01ea74e.png) ---

Can you open one of the visualizations in Visualize to check whether they are using the right index pattern? Also make sure they are built using the right fields (the one actually having data in your indices) ---

The visualization is built using the saved search "logs [Filebeat Logstash] ECS". Make sure this saved search is linked to the right index pattern and doesn't set filters that exclude all results. ---

Go to Discover, click the "Open" menu in the top nav and select "logs [Filebeat Logstash] ECS". This will load the saved search which is used as data source for the visualization. To the left below "Add filter" the name of the index pattern will be shown. I suspect this search will point to older data, that's why you can't see the recent data. You have multiple index patterns like `logstash-2020.07.21`, but you should just create a single one spanning them all: `logstash-*`. Then you can look at the data from all days at once. ---

there is need something extra configuration for this index pattern ? or just simply create index pattern "logstash-\*" ? ---

i just created logstash-\* index pattern there is all days logs showing but in logs [Filebeat logstassh] dashboard i can't see. i done what you said but i won't able to see. look... ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/e/9eca88432c5c8994d1984a9c1c017dc7bb5c450e.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/3/532a2a96c38db81c2a82d069a7b1888cfef49bd4.png) ---

Based on the screenshot in your original post, some of your data is in the `filebeat-7.8.0-2020.07.18` index - as it doesn't start with `logstash-`, you won't be able to see it when working with the `logstash-*` pattern. The way these patterns work is by replacing the \* with any possible string and fetching data from the matching indices. So `logstash-*` will match `logstash-2020.07.21` and `logstash-just-really-anything-else`, but it won't match `filebeat-7.8.0-2020.07.18`. The most common setup is to create a second index pattern `filebeat-*` and recreate the visualizations and dashboard based on that one. Then it will work for all future filebeat data. ---
