In this guide, we will walk you through easy steps to configure Kibana dashboards\/visualizations to use custom index. Elastic Beats come packaged with sample Kibana dashboards<\/a>, visualizations and searches for visualizing Beats data in Kibana. There are several circumstances where you might need to configure Kibana dashboards or visualizations to use custom index. For example, you want to reuse existing Kibana dashboards, visualizations and related searches on a custom Beat index pattern without the need to re-invent the wheel. You noticed that default Kibana dashboards are designed to work with the default Beat index pattern, e.g, filebeat-*<\/code> for Filebeat . The dashboards are pre-configured with visualizations, searches, and other settings that assume your Beat data is indexed under that specific Beat index pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
