Hi All, Here i am using filebeat to ship all my java application logger file data to elasticsearch using ECS-Logging method for java application.

ecs-logging-java: [https://github.com/elastic/ecs-logging-java](https://github.com/elastic/ecs-logging-java)

It's working fine but when i try to create visualization message field is not available there.

Could some one kindly suggest how to make the message field visible when doing visualizations? Because i have to show all the logging messages in datatable view?
