Hi @fedelemantuano, thanks for the pull request. When you say this helps to better manage the queries what do you refer exactly to? I asked the Kibana folks and from what I understand the only advantage would be that it avoids false negative matches if you have other indexes starting with 'packetbeat-'. Was that your case?

With packetbeat- ELK use all indexes, while with [packetbeat-]YYYY.MM.DD uses only precise days.

Ah, you are right, it is better. Can you sign the CLA please? We also need to update the screenshot there.

@fedelemantuano To make this work, "Use event times to create index names" must also be activated. I will merge the pull request and adjust the documentation with the above and the screenshot.
