I was given a json file to work on. I want to do it elasticsearch and kibana. Problem is that instead of double quotes, it is wrapped with single quotes. How can I post it to elasticsearch?

Hey,

you need to fix the file first and replace single with double ticks before being able to send it to Elasticsearch.
