== Connecting to Elastic Maps Service
|
|
|
|
https://www.elastic.co/elastic-maps-service[Elastic Maps Service (EMS)] is a service that hosts
|
|
tile layers and vector shapes of administrative boundaries.
|
|
If you are using Kibana's out-of-the-box settings, the **Maps** application is already configured to use EMS.
|
|
|
|
The **Maps** application makes requests directly from the browser to EMS.
|
|
To proxy EMS requests through the Kibana server, set `map.proxyElasticMapsServiceInMaps` to `true` in your <<settings, kibana.yml>> file.

=== Disabling Elastic Maps Service
|
|
|
|
You might experience EMS connection issues if your Kibana server or browser are on a private network or
|
|
behind a firewall. If this happens, you can disable the EMS connection to avoid unnecessary EMS requests.
|
|
|
|
To disable EMS, change your <<settings, kibana.yml>> file.
|
|
|
|
. Set `map.includeElasticMapsService` to `false` to turn off the EMS connection.
|
|
. Set `map.tilemap.url` to the URL of your tile server. This configures the **Maps** default tile layer.
|
|
. (Optional) Set `map.regionmap` to the vector shapes of the administrative boundaries that you want to use.
