I have stack grafana + elasticsearch.
How to set labels of charts?
Now they are all "Max", basing on metric type.
current query
I want to set unique label for every query chart.
You can use alias field which is also seen in your screenshot. You may want to check below link to get more information about how to name time series in grafana when elastic search is data source.

Problem
I am trying to build a dashboard in elastic with a table to monitor job runs.
I want to have per run the minimum timestamp (ie. job start) and the number of processed messages. The minimum timestamp is my problem, I can't seem to get it.
What I have done
All my log lines have as (relevant) fields: #timestamp, nb_messages, run_id. run_id is unique per run, and a run creates multiple log lines.
I create a dashboard, add a TSVB panel, and select Table.
I use run_id as the field to group by.
I can use max(nb_message) in my table without issue.
But if I use min(#timestamp), or any other aggregation than count, I just get a -.
I first tried with a lens instead of a TSVB panel, and I had the same issue, but with as message: To use this function, select a different field.
I can confirm in the index that logging.timestamp has date for type.
Question
Is there a way to use the timestamp as metric?
I would use a "normal" data table visualization (navigate through Aggregation based option in the Visualization menu if you're using the latest version of Kibana) instead of the TSVB. There, the default metric is count representing the amount of events of the index pattern in the selected time range. You can use the min metric on the #timestamp field and aggregate/group your data as you want.
The preliminary is of course that the selected index pattern contains an #timestamp field.
I hope I could help you.
I'm currently trying to create a graph on Grafana to monitor the status of my servers, however, I can't seem to find a way to use the value of a field as the value to be displayed on the graph. (Datasource is ElasticSearch)
The following "document" is going to be sent to GrayLog (which saves to Elastic) every 1 minute for an array of regions.
{
"region_key": "some_key",
"region_name": "Some Name",
"region_count": 1610
}
By using the following settings, I can get Grafana to display the count of messages it received for each region, however, I want to display the number on the region_count field instead.
Result:
How can I accomplish this? is this even possible using Elastic as the datasource?
1) Make sure that your document includes a timestamp in ElasticSearch.
2) In the Query box, provide the Lucene query which narrows down the documents to only those related to this metric
3) In the Metric line, press "Count" and change that to one which takes a specific field: for example, "Average"
4) Next to the "Average" box will appear "select field", which is a dropdown of the available fields. If you see unexpected fieldnames here, it's probably because your Lucene query isn't specific enough. (Kibana can be useful for getting this query right)
I have a project in kibana integrated with elastic search.
In Kibana page I am displaying a chart with X(months) and Y(Euro) values.
I want to show a line in the chart that will show the average Euro value of all data.
For the moment I add a manual value to show the horizontal line in the chart. Chart example I want to show
I want to get average value automatically from my data in elastic search. Is there any option to do this task?
Thank you
Considering it is timeseries data, timelion can be used.
I have created dummy data as follows:
POST /balance_new/doc?pretty
{
"#timestamp": "2018-01-14T12:32:50.548Z",
"amount":136.5
}
There are more entries present like this.
Timelion query:
.es(index='balance_new', timefield='#timestamp', metric=avg:amount).range(135,140).title('Average EUR Monthly').yaxis(label='Average EUR'),
.es(index='balance_new', timefield='#timestamp', metric=avg:amount).aggregate(function=avg)
Graph look like:

I am new to Kibana and using it for visualising the data present in Elastic Search.
I am trying to create dynamic dashboard i.e. by using saved search indexes having field values as variable.
What I want
Want to use place holders in the query which can be populated from URL parameters and then search results rendered in dashboard.
So that user can search results by providing some input instead of fixed query.
Can it be done in Kibana? If not, is there any better visualisation tool other than Kibana to serve this purpose.
In the Dashboard View there is actually a searchbar where you can just fire normal Matchqueries and its easy to filter i.e:
Create a table with terms aggregation for one of the fields a user might be interested in.
Click on one of the Terms in the Dashboard
A filter can be seen under the searchbar and all elements in the dashboard will be filtered with it.
If you have line charts users can zoom into the charts to see only information of the zoomed in timeframe
Barcharts are interactive like tables
Play around a bit. Kibana is very powerful you just have to find the right visualizations.
With Kibana I have managed to visualize continious requests in a linear chart by:
using a line chart
Y-axis: Aggregation: Count
X-axis: Date Histogram with field #timestamp
Split Lines: Sub Aggregation: Terms Field IP address
Now I would like to get the average, minimum and maximum session duration out of this. Is this possible, I haven't quite figured out the right approach to take it from here.
You need to create dashboard to see all this data on one screen.
Save this visualization
Change Y-axis aggregation type to "Average"
Save this visualization with another name
Change Y-axis aggregation type to "Minimum"
Save this visualization with another name
Change Y-axis aggregation type to "Maximum"
Save this visualization with another name
Create Dashboard with all saved visualizations.
