Viewing logs in Kibana

Elasticsearch maintains the logs index for each microservice and enables you to view these logs through a graphical interface – Kibana. To view the Adeptia logs in Kibana, you need to create the index pattern for each microservice in Kibana. Follow the steps given below to view the application logs using Kibana.

1. Log in to Kibana.
2. Search for index
3. Select Kibana/Index Patterns.
   
4. Click Create index pattern.
   
   The Create index pattern page that opens displays all the microservices for which you want to create the index pattern.
5. On the Create index pattern page, select a microservice, and then click Next step.
   
6. Click Create index pattern.
   
   The screen below confirms that the index pattern has been created for the selected microservice.
   

7. Click the menu  icon at the top-left corner, and then select Analytics > Discover.
   
   The next screen displays list of all the logs related to the selected microservice.

   Repeat steps 1 through 8 to create index patterns for other microservices and view their logs.
