Hi!

Filebeat normally collects logs in order and send them with timestamp attached. This timestamp is used in Kibana to order them in the timeline. So normally logs will be in order. Also check a similar [question](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/how-to-make-filebeat-ship-logs-in-the-same-order-as-in-the-log-file/89402) from the forum.

Thank you!
