Hi All,

I need to setup a new visualize to get the list of hosts forwarding the logs to logstash. We have around 50 server and filebeat is the only plugin installed in all the server.

I dont want the count , I want the list of hosts that have send the logs in the particular period of time.

Regards  
Nandha

Create a datable with the `terms` aggregation on the hosts field and adjust the size to include all of the hosts.
