Winlogbeat Index

Hello there, I´m trying the elk stack 8 and I´m a bit lost. Configured the security portion and when I send the logs over to the Elasticsearch cluster, I cannot see the index on index management. But I can see after ticking hidden indices. Something change about the index on elk 8? And also winlogbeat creates a index called:

.ds-winlogbeat-8.0.0-2022.02.21-000001

Is that alright??

Thanks for the attention.

Yes that is fine. 8.0 uses datastreams to store the data.

What about the name convention winlogbeat-* dosent change a thing? I mean, dashboards, security and etc?

Thanks

I'm not sure how of the technical details at that level to be honest. There may be aliases or other things in place to handle it.
