Hi all, im following the elasticsearch 'getting started guide' and am having trouble with the logs example.

I bulk import the logs.jsonl, added all the 3 mappings as provided ([https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html))

I added an index pattern in kibana with 'logstash-\*' and Time Filter field name: @timestamp - here are the indices in my instance , the look ok to me [https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/WGblJNay/](https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/WGblJNay/)

however when i try to view the logstash-\* index pattern in discover and visualize WITHOUT any filters, it just says 'No results found'

Any ideas?

Is the time period you are looking for data in Kibana correct?
