Hi community,
I have followed the guidelines on [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/data-rollups.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/data-rollups.html)
I try the example first to get a grip on how these rollup jobs function.
However when I try to Visualize the rolled up data I am unable to find the index called rollup\_logstash as shown in the example.
Is there a step I am missing? Do I need to do anything manual in Kibana with the index called rollup\_logstash?
Love to get a reaction. Thank you.
greeting,
Erwin

You have to go to Management \> Index pattern and create a rollup index pattern first - it's very easy to miss that part:
> Using the information from the example rollup configuration, you can use `rollup_logstash` to match the rolled up index pattern, and `kibana_sample_data_logs` to match the index pattern for raw data. The notation for a combination index pattern with both raw and rolled up data is `rollup_logstash,kibana_sample_data_logs` .
Thanks for making us aware of the issue in the docs.

Hi Joe,
Thank you for the extra information. I created a new index (rollup\_logstash), deleted the created rollup job and created a new rollup job, with a new ID and rollup index named rollup\_logstash. I activated this rollup job.
However I am still unable to create a visualization as mentioned in the documentation: " Using the information from the example rollup configuration, you can use `rollup_logstash` to match the rolled up index pattern, and `kibana_sample_data_logs` to match the index pattern for raw data. The notation for a combination index pattern with both raw and rolled up data is `rollup_logstash,kibana_sample_data_logs` .", because I am unable to select the index `rollup_logstash`. I only have the indexe `kibana_sample_data_logs` available to me.
Is there anything else I am missing?

An index pattern in Kibana is an additional meta information, it's not the index in Elasticsearch itself: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/index-patterns.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/index-patterns.html) When the actual data is there in the index, you have to additionally create it.

Thanks Joe, that works perfectly.
