Hi @Ayushi47,

The first thing you need to check whether you really have this data in Elasticsearch (e.g. with `curl)?

Best,

So, if simplify, Logstash ingests data to Elasticsearch and Kibana reads that data from Elasticsearch. If you don't see any data in Kibana you first should make sure that Logstash -\> Elasticsearch junction works correctly. To do that you at least to query Elasticsearch directly and see if there is your data in there, you can start from the here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/advanced-pipeline.html#indexing-parsed-data-into-elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/advanced-pipeline.html#indexing-parsed-data-into-elasticsearch)

Let me know if you have questions regarding Logstash \<-\> Elasticsearch, then I'll forward your question to Logstash forum.

Best,  
Oleg
