If I am understanding this correctly, you have a file which you need to import into Elasticsearch and view in Kibana?

What type of file is it?

Filebeat might be helpful, but probably overkill unless it's a log file which you want to constantly be monitoring.

Here is a getting started document we have for Kibana which might help. Here we are import JSON into Elasticsearch using the bulk API.

Hi Tyler,

Yes you understood correctly, may be i dint put things in order 🙂

The file is just a log file from mobile application, on local system.

Please share the getting started document .
