im trying to get my .CSV file in Kibana for visualisation. It feels like Im close to get it work but I can`t figer out how to get my output right.

In Kibana I see my .csv file as:  
`message: News,test@email.com,10.10.10.10`  
It looks like my CSV ouput is in 1 field called message. I would like to get 3 different fields: Name,Email,IP. I have tryed a lot of csv files and different codes but no succes yet.

CSV FILE:  
`Name,Email,IP`  
`Auto,auto@newsuk,10.0.0.196`  
`News,test@email.com,10.10.10.10`  
`nieuwsbrieven,nieuwsbrieven@nl,10.10.10.10`

CONF file:  
`input {`  
`file {`  
`path => "C:\Users\JOEY2\Desktop\Deelproblemen\Applicatie\Output\test.csv"`  
`start_position => beginning`  
`sincedb_path => "/dev/null"`  
`}}`

`filter {`  
`csv {`  
`separator => ","`  
`columns => ["Date","Open","High"]`  
`}`  
`}`  
`output {`  
`elasticsearch {`  
`hosts => ["http://localhost:9200"]`  
`index => "csv_index"`  
`}`  
`stdout {}`  
`}`  
filebeat.yml  
`filebeat.prospectors:`  
`- input_type: log`  
`paths:`  
`- C:\Users\JOEY2\Desktop\Deelproblemen\Applicatie\Output\test.csv`

output.elasticsearch:  
`hosts: ["localhost:9200"]`  
`template.name: "testttt"`  
`template.overwrite: true`

output.logstash:  
`hosts: ["localhost:5044"]`  
`Thanks for your time.`
