    Free and open is who we are. Elasticsearch, Kibana, Beats, and Logstash weren't built solely by us — they were built by the Elastic community.

    If something is not working, there are two possibilities:

    • there is a bug

    This is where the community can help.

    We have some community guidelines that ensure the Elastic community is an excellent space to communicate, collaborate, and contribute.
