Kibana integrated with Firehose

I am pushing two different tools data in Elastic search using Kinesis Firehose. I need to display data in Kibana and I am able to do it separately But i want these two indexes to display in single index that means want to merge index and display.

Both the indexes names are different from each other. Example:

1st index- animal
2nd index- Human
To display in single index, Species.

Solution

  • You can create an alias in ElasticSearch for your indices, something like POST to 

    your.elasticsearch.domain/_aliases

    Body: 

    {
    "actions" : [
        { "add" : { "indices" : ["Animal", "Human"], "alias" : "Species" } },
    ]
}

    Then you should be able to use Species as a index pattern in Kibana.
