KB and LS are not linked, so you cannot do this directly.
Though you should see the message count drop at a certain time, which would indicate it has finished.

Hello warkolm ,
Thanks for your reply .I am facing one issue with using kibana .Following is my .config file for logstash 👎
input {
file{
path =\> "D:/Log/_/_"
start\_position =\> "beginning"
sincedb\_write\_interval =\> 0
```
}
file{
path => "D:/Log/*/MIP/*"
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_write_interval => 0
}
file{
path => "D:/Log/*/NHGS/*"
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_write_interval => 0
}
```
}
filter{
mutate{
gsub =\> ["path","D:/Log/", ""]
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {
action =\> "index"
hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"]
index =\> "stock"
workers =\> 1
codec =\> json
}
}
Following is my log file : excerpts
MIP Started
MIP : 0
MIP : 1
MIP : 2
MIP : 3
MIP : 4
MIP : 5
MIP : 6
MIP : 7
MIP : 8
MIP : 9
..
..
Mip Finished .
But when I am using this command to cross check everything is fine or not I am getting error
$ curl '[http://localhost:9200/stock](http://localhost:9200/stock)'
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
100 303 100 303 0 0 20200 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 20200{"error":{"root\_cause":[{"type":"index\_not\_found\_exception","reason":"no such index","resource.type":"index\_or\_alias","resource.id":"stock","index":"stock"}],"type":"index\_not\_found\_exception","reason":"no such index","resource.type":"index\_or\_alias","resource.id":"stock","index":"stock"},"status":404}
Can you please tell me where I am doing wrong .I think the indexing is not getting in a proper way .Can you tell me what should I do to correct this .

Try using the `_cat` APIs to confirm that you have the index in your cluster.
You could also install Marvel to help as well.
