hi so im having a problem

I ingested data(and i receive the successful page) but whenever i search for data the index shows up empty/there are no events
i already checked the license and im good with licensing. I have a developer licensing. I check the monitoring console and it shows that i did not use any license at all.
So its very weird because i am getting a successful ingested message but then the index is empty and the monitoring console says i did not ingest anything.
Any suggestions as to what the problem could be
