Hi,

I am using winlogbeat to send the security event to Kibana.  
The dashboards were successfully imported through the API, however i cannot see them on Kibana Dashboards:

Hey @cavril ,

how you did install the winlogbeat? By following the guideline/steps on the Kibana UI? Did you use [winlogbeat-oss](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/beats/winlogbeat-oss) ? ODFE works (or at least has been tested to work) with oss-like versions of beats and logstash. Reg. the configuration you should also follow the guidelines here: [Troubleshoot - Open Distro Documentation](https://opendistro.github.io/for-elasticsearch-docs/docs/troubleshoot/#beats), mainly disable:

```nohighlight
 setup.ilm.enabled: false
 setup.ilm.check_exists: false

```

Maybe share your `winlogbeat.yml` so that we can help you with better troubleshooting.

Best,  
Gezim

Hi @GezimSejdiu ,

I was previously connecting this winlogbeat to another ELK (not Opendistro) and it worked perfectly, so i just changed the output to target opendistro.  
I installed this one: [Winlogbeat](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/beats/winlogbeat)

Hey @cavril ,

so, yes you are using the licensed one: License: [Elastic License](https://github.com/elastic/beats/tree/7.11/licenses/ELASTIC-LICENSE.txt) and not the one I just shared: [winlogbeat-oss](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/beats/winlogbeat-oss). I would suggest that you try to re-isntall winlogbeat using the oss version and also configure those settings I just shared above with you: [Troubleshoot - Open Distro Documentation](https://opendistro.github.io/for-elasticsearch-docs/docs/troubleshoot/#beats) and add them here:

```auto
# ---------------------------- Elasticsearch Output ----------------------------
output.elasticsearch:
#hosts: [“localhost:9200”]
hosts: “10.10.X.X:9200”
username: “xxxx”
password: “xxxx”

```

b.t.w when you say `hosts: “10.10.X.X:9200”` it will choose HTTP protocol, right? And ODFE by default is using HTTP(s) via TLS/SSL (of course with demo certificates).

I can’t reproduce this now but if I manage to find some more spare time, maybe I can give it a try.

Thank you for for highlights between the licensing explanation.  
My elasticsearch is not exposed with https and the http output is working perfectly.  
I was able to create index pattern, dashboard but the publishing of the dashboard does not appear on Kibana.  
So i am not sure about which role mapping or permission is required to be able to see them.

Kibana has internal and ldap authentication mechanism
