There are a couple ways to easily get data ingested into {es}.
The easiest is to install one or more of our vailable sample data packages. If you have no data, you should be prompted to install when running {kib} for the first time. You can also access and install the sample data packages by going to the home page and clicking "add sample data".
The provided makelogs script will generate sample data.
node scripts/makelogs --auth <username>:<password>The default username and password combination are elastic:changeme
Make sure to execute node scripts/makelogs after {es} is up and running!
If running with a platinum or trial license, you can also use the CSV uploader provided inside the Machine learning app. Navigate to the Data visualizer to upload your data from a file.
