Hello,  
I am new in elastic search. I have a csv file that I want to upload to elastic search in order to use in kibana.  
The file is saved in my laptop and I want to update the data. I am not the administrator of the laptop so I can't change the Filebeat yml file. Is there another way to do the update automaticaly?  
Thank you,

You can manually upload by using the [file uploader](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/connect-to-elasticsearch.html#upload-data-kibana) in Machine Learning -\> Data Visualizer -\> Import Data.
