[[discover-view-document]]
|
|
== View a document
|
|
|
|
Once you've found a document of interest in *Discover*, you have two more ways to
|
|
view it: in a view by itself or in context with surrounding documents.
|
|
|
|
[float]
|
|
[[discover-view-single-document]]
|
|
=== View a single document
|
|
|
|
Access a single document so you can bookmark it and share the link.
|
|
|
|
. In the document table, click the expand icon (>).
|
|
. In the expanded view, click **View single document**.
|
|
+
|
|
You can view the document in two ways. The **Table** view displays the document fields row-by-row.
|
|
The **JSON** (JavaScript Object Notation) view allows you to look at how {es} returns the document.

|
|
you can create <<external-plugin-development, your own plugin>>.

[[discover-view-surrounding-documents]]
|
|
=== View surrounding documents

|
|
your index pattern must contain time-based events.
|
|
|
|
. In the document table, click the expand icon (>).
|
|
. In the expanded view, click **View surrounding documents**.

the context was opened. The anchor document is highlighted in blue.
