Hello, I am getting the errors "No matching indices found: No indices match pattern "winlogbeat-\*" when I try to go to the Winlogbeat dashboard or Discover.

There was a winlogbeat-\* index pattern created, just no traffic hitting Elastic

Can you please help me out

Welcome to our community! 😃

Please provide more information. Things like your Beat config and logs, `_cat` output showing what indices exist. You haven't given us much to work with here.

Please don't post pictures of text or code. They are difficult to read, impossible to search and replicate (if it's code), and some people may not be even able to see them 🙂
