I am trying to import a csv with logstash but am not able to import my records(documents). Do not know what I am doing wrong. Do not receive any error messages. Settings: Default pipeline workers: 8  
Pipeline main started.

Conf:  
input {  
file {  
path =\> ["/ES/LS/WB.CSV"]  
type =\> "core"  
start\_position =\> "beginning"  
}  
}

filter {  
csv {  
columns =\> ["orderid", "orderdatum", "ordertijd", "verkoopintern", "werknemer", "klantnummer", "klant", "artikelnummer", "maat", "productnaam", "artnrlev", "kleur", "merk", "groep", "soort", "leverancier", "seizoen", "aantal", "inkoopsprijs", "prijs", "verkoopprijs", "regeltotaal", "btw", "korting", "kassakorting", "wisselgeld", "opmerking"]  
separator =\> ","  
}  
}

output {  
elasticsearch {  
action =\> "index"  
hosts =\> "localhost"  
index =\> "logstash-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"  
workers =\> 1  
}  
}

This is an extremely common problem that people are having. Please see my response here: [Logstash not indexing the input data to elastic search](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/logstash-not-indexing-the-input-data-to-elastic-search/62659)
