I am facing an issue while creating an index pattern for data stored in the form of parent child relationship in kibana 7.1.1. It is loading from a long time. Can we create index patterns for parent child data in kibana? ---

Kibana does not support parent-child relations yet. There is an issue tracking this here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/3730](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/3730) You may add your use case for this feature to that ticket. Please be as descriptive as possible so we can determine the best way to implement this. ---
