== Edit dashboards
|
|
|
|
Now that you have added panels to your dashboard, you can add filter panels to interact with the data, and Markdown panels to add context to the dashboard.
|
|
To make your dashboard look the way you want, use the editing options.

[[add-controls]]
|
|
=== Add controls
|
|
|
|
To filter the data on your dashboard in real-time, add a *Controls* panel.
|
|
|
|
You can add two types of *Controls*:
|
|
|
|
* Options list — Filters content based on one or more specified options. The dropdown menu is dynamically populated with the results of a terms aggregation.
|
|
For example, use the options list on the sample flight dashboard when you want to filter the data by origin city and destination city.
|
|
|
|
* Range slider — Filters data within a specified range of numbers. The minimum and maximum values are dynamically populated with the results of a
|
|
min and max aggregation. For example, use the range slider when you want to filter the sample flight dashboard by a specific average ticket price.
|

|
|
To configure *Controls* for your dashboard:
|
|
|
|
. Click *Options*, then configure the following:
|
|
|
|
* *Update Kibana filters on each change* — When selected, all interactive inputs create filters that refresh the dashboard. When unselected,
|
|
{kib} filters are created only when you click *Apply changes*.
|
|
|
|
* *Use time filter* — When selected, the aggregations that generate the options list and time range are connected to the <<set-time-filter,time filter>>.
|
|
|
|
* *Pin filters to global state* — When selected, all filters created by interacting with the inputs are automatically pinned.
|
|
|
|
. Click *Update*.

[[add-markdown]]
|
|
=== Add Markdown
|
|
|
|
*Markdown* is a text entry field that accepts GitHub-flavored Markdown text. When you enter the text, the tool populates the results on the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
Use Markdown when you want to add context to the other panels on your dashboard, such as important information, instructions and images.
|
|
|
|
For information about GitHub-flavored Markdown text, click *Help*.
|
|
|
|
For example, when you enter:
|
|
|
|
[role="screenshot"]
|
|
image::images/markdown_example_1.png[]
|
|
|
|
The following instructions are displayed:
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
Or when you enter:
|
|
|
|
[role="screenshot"]
|
|
image::images/markdown_example_3.png[]
|
|
|
|
The following image is displayed:

|
|
=== Arrange panels
|
|
|
|
To make your dashboard panels look exactly how you want, you can move, resize, customize, and delete them.
|
|
|
|
Put the dashboard in *Edit* mode, then use the following options:
|
|
|
|
* To move, click and hold the panel header, then drag to the new location.
|
|
|
|
* To resize, click the resize control, then drag to the new dimensions.
|
|
|
|
* To delete, open the panel menu, then select *Delete from dashboard*. When you delete a panel from the dashboard, the
|
|
visualization or saved search from the panel is still available in Kibana.
|

[[clone-panels]]
|
|
=== Clone panels
|
|
|
|
To duplicate a panel and its configured functionality, clone the panel. Cloned panels support all of the original functionality,
|
|
including renaming, editing, and cloning.
|
|
|
|
. Put the dashboard in *Edit* mode.
|
|
|
|
. For the panel you want to clone, open the panel menu, then select *Clone panel*.
|
|
|
|
Cloned panels appear beside the original, and move other panels down to make room when necessary.
|
|
All cloned visualization panels appear in the visualization list.

[[dashboard-customize-filter]]
|
|
=== Customize time ranges
|
|
|
|
You can configure each visualization, saved search, and map on your dashboard
|
|
for a specific time range. For example, you might want one visualization to show
|
|
the monthly trend for CPU usage and another to show the current CPU usage.
|
|
|
|
From the panel menu, select *Customize time range* to expose a time filter
|
|
dedicated to that panel. Panels that are not restricted by a specific
|
|
time range are controlled by the
|
|
<<set-time-filter,time filter>>.
