Hi all,
Trying out Kibana 4's new release today, and was wondering is this is still
possible. In Kibana 3, you could simply comma-delimit all the index
patterns you wanted to expose to your searches, but that doesn't seem
possible in Kibana 4.
I have indexes named like:
company-customer-YYYYMMDD
I'd like to be able to search across company and customer if possible.
It appears that the "Configure an Index Pattern" page allows for a single
pattern, not multiples separated by commas.
If I wanted to search these two indexes:
companyA-customerA-YYYYMMDD
companyA-customerB-YYYYMMDD
but not:
companyA-customerC-YYYYMMDD
Is that possible?
Thanks!
Chris

+1...I don't see how to do this either. Is it no longer possible? That was a very powerful feature in Kibana3.

This will be possible in a future release: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/2017](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/2017)
