Hello,

I'm trying to identify journalbeat in Kibana. Where I'll get journalbeat information in Kibana dashboard?  
Can anyone help me ?

Did you run this part - [Journalbeat quick start: installation and configuration | Journalbeat Reference [7.14] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/journalbeat/current/journalbeat-installation-configuration.html#setup-assets)?

If so then you should have a bunch of dashboards and an index pattern under Discover.

The index pattern should be `journalbeat-*`.

What's the output from `_cat/indices?v`?

Ok, then it's odd that Kibana would be showing that error.
