I've already have some java log data in my Elasticsearch. But when I open Kibana, it tells me to add integrations first. I'm confused.

Welcome to our community! 😃

You can ignore that and head on over to Discover to start looking at your data - [Discover | Kibana Guide [8.2] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/discover.html)

Thank you very much. I'd forgot to create data view. After doing that, I can see data in Discover.
