Hello, I am trying to search/query to make sure I get the results regardless of indices. How can I do universal search ( across multiple indices ) in Kibana? Is it even possible? ---

Welcome to our community! 😃 You will need to create an index pattern of `*`. I am not sure that is the best idea though. ---
