I am new to the Elastic Searcg. We are using ES and Kibana 5.x as Free basic licenses with Td-Agent and like to set up the alert. Please let me know my options to set up alerts in Free basic license model and How can I set up the alerts. Thank you, -Sanjay ---

Thank you for email. After creating the indexes, we like to set the alert on query of the indexes. E.g. Query index/es for field name value and look for word in message body and if it exists then send the alert start with email (it will be nice if we can integrate with HipChat). Also This should be for latest one and able to schedule the query to run every define time repetitively (say 5 minutes). It should alert for the latest match. If match stop on next query then send the resolve notification. Expect to hear from you soon. Thank you, Sanjay ---
