Missing event_data fields in Winlogbeat 1.x

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hello,

winlogbeat 1.3 is installed and successful send event log directly to elastic on port 9200. Index is created in Kibana and I can see fields related to winlogbeat except all the "event_data fields.*" !

Those fields are not present in Winlogbeat 1.x. That data/feature was added in Winlogbeat 5.x.

3

Does Winlogbeat 5.x is compatible with Elasticsearch 2.3.x ?
If yes, can I upgrade from Winlogbeat 1.3 to 5.x ?

4

Yes, we include an index template that is compatible with ES 2.x.

There are some minor changes in the configuration files. I recommend you see the upgrade guide. There will be some minor config file changes and you will need to install and updated index template.

Thanks again for your great support,

Just to let you know that it's working now.
