[[maps-search]]
|
|
== Searching your data
|
|
|
|
The **Maps** application embeds the query bar for real-time ad hoc search.
|
|
Only layers requesting data from {es} are filtered when you submit a search request.
|
|
|
|
You can create a layer that requests data from {es} from the following:
|
|
|
|
* <<vector-layer>> with:
|
|
|
|
** Documents source
|
|
|
|
** Grid aggregation source
|
|
|
|
** <<terms-join>>
|
|
|
|
* <<heatmap-layer>> with Grid aggregation source

[[maps-layer-based-filtering]]
|
|
=== Filtering a single layer
|
|
|
|
You can apply a search request to individual layers by setting `Filters` in the layer details panel.
|
|
Click the *Add filter* button to add a filter to a layer.

[[maps-search-across-multiple-indices]]
|
|
=== Searching across multiple indices
|
|
|
|
Your map might contain multiple {es} indices.
|
|
This can occur when your map contains two or more layers with {es} sources from different indices.
|
|
This can also occur with a single layer with an {es} source and a <<terms-join>>.
|
|
|
|
Searching across multiple indices might sometimes result in empty layers.
|
|
The most common cause for empty layers are searches for a field that exists in one index, but does not exist in other indices.
|
|
Add {ref}/mapping-index-field.html[_index] to your search to include documents from indices that do not contain a search field.
|
|
|
|
For example, suppose you have a vector layer showing the `kibana_sample_data_logs` documents
|
|
and another vector layer with `kibana_sample_data_flights` documents.
|
|
(See <<add-sample-data, adding sample data>>
|
|
to install the `kibana_sample_data_logs` and `kibana_sample_data_flights` indices.)
|
|
|
|
If you query for
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
machine.os.keyword : "osx"
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
the `kibana_sample_data_flights` layer is empty because the index
|
|
`kibana_sample_data_flights` does not contain the field `machine.os.keyword` and no documents match the query.

|
If you instead query for
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
machine.os.keyword : "osx" or _index : "kibana_sample_data_flights"
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
the `kibana_sample_data_flights` layer includes data.
