Kibana View

Last Updated: Nov. 22, 2022

Coralogix provides you the ability to easily switch views and view your data either on Coralogix’s cutting-edge dashboard or in the good old Kibana. Use Coralogix to view our machine learning insights and for your troubleshooting while performing your day-to-day data slicing with Kibana 7.x.

In addition to providing out-of-the-box dashboards in Kibana, we’ve added hosted visualizations for metrics in Grafana and for tracing in Jaeger.

To view your data in Kibana, simply select the Kibana icon in the dropdown menu in the upper right side of the platform.

You will see the Kibana main screen, switch back to Coralogix at any time using the navigation menu:

On the left side, you can see shortcuts to:

Recently viewed – useful when you want to go back to the recent search/visualization/dashboard
Discover – search/review logs in Kibana
Visualize – open or create new visualization
Dashboard – open or create new dashboard
Management – review/refresh index patterns, manage saved objects, Kibana settings

Discover

Discover enables you to quickly search and filter your data, and get information about the structure of the fields.

In the top left of the screen, there is a menu:
- New – create new search
- Save – save the current search for later use
- Open – open earlier saved query
- Share – Share a link to your search
Below the menu there is a search bar – use the Lucene query language to easily copy queries from/to Kibana to/from Coralogix if needed.
Next to the search bar, there is a time filter. Use it if you need to specify a timeframe.

Below the search bar there is a “+Add filter” button. Use it for easier filtering. Details about the feature: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/6.8/field-filter.html

For example, coralogix.metadata.applicationName and log fields were added as display filters.

To add a new display filter click on the Add button next to the field which is on the left at Available fields column.

To remove a display filter click on the Remove button next to the field which is on the left of in the Selected fields.
