Hello my context : logstash 1.3.2 + ES 0.90.11 + kibana3 I have a perfect pipe of these tools when i send my own logs files tranformed by logstash ( ES works and kibana also with different configured dashboards ) but now when i try to send directly json format to ES it works , but kibana ( configured with the good index ) does not get any data ... -☹ ES head-plugin displays correctly the indexed data , but nothing appears in kibana did i miss something important when sending directly json data through curl -XPOST '[http://localhost:9200/testindex1/testlog](http://localhost:9200/testindex1/testlog)' -d @my.json from the head plugin view of ES, the data is indexed correctly...

I had a similar issue and the problem was the .conf file in logstash.

Just a thought, almost all queries Kibana sends has a filter on the @timestamp. In addition it is looking (by default) only in indexes named logstash-\*. If your data does not have that field or has values in that field that is not in the range that Kibana is looking, or your index does not match the pattern name in Kibana, you might not see your data. The easiest way to verify this is you open the inspector on a panel in Kibana, copy the ES query, and run it yourself and debug from there. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
