Dashboard Example

[Jeeppler]

There is an Dashboard example in the README.md:

# A saved search, visualization or dashboard
resource "elasticsearch_kibana_object" "test_dashboard" {
  body = "${file("dashboard_path.txt")}"
}

However, how does the content of the dashboard_path.txt file looks like? It would be nice to have an example.

@Jeeppler it'd probably be a json file to be honest :grinning:.

However, it'd be a full kibana json object describing a dashboard. Here's an example from metricbeat:

[
  {
    "_id": "Metricbeat-system-overview",
    "_type": "dashboard",
    "_source": {
      "description": "",
      "hits": 0,
      "kibanaSavedObjectMeta": {
        "searchSourceJSON": "{\"filter\":[{\"query\":{\"query_string\":{\"analyze_wildcard\":true,\"query\":\"*\"}}}]}"
      },
      "optionsJSON": "{\"darkTheme\":false}",
      "panelsJSON": "[{\"col\":1,\"id\":\"Network-Bytes\",\"panelIndex\":2,\"row\":6,\"size_x\":8,\"size_y\":2,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":9,\"id\":\"Network-Packetloss\",\"panelIndex\":3,\"row\":6,\"size_x\":4,\"size_y\":2,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":1,\"id\":\"System-Navigation\",\"panelIndex\":9,\"row\":1,\"size_x\":3,\"size_y\":3,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":1,\"id\":\"Total-Memory\",\"panelIndex\":11,\"row\":4,\"size_x\":2,\"size_y\":2,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":3,\"id\":\"Available-Memory\",\"panelIndex\":12,\"row\":4,\"size_x\":2,\"size_y\":2,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":1,\"id\":\"System-overview-by-host\",\"panelIndex\":14,\"row\":8,\"size_x\":12,\"size_y\":6,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":5,\"id\":\"System-load\",\"panelIndex\":15,\"row\":1,\"size_x\":8,\"size_y\":3,\"type\":\"visualization\"},{\"col\":5,\"id\":\"CPU-Usage\",\"panelIndex\":16,\"row\":4,\"size_x\":8,\"size_y\":2,\"type\":\"visualization\"}]",
      "timeRestore": false,
      "title": "Metricbeat system overview",
      "uiStateJSON": "{\"P-14\":{\"vis\":{\"params\":{\"sort\":{\"columnIndex\":null,\"direction\":null}}}}}",
      "version": 1
    }
  }
]

@phillbaker obviously it will be a JSON file. The content should be in JSON format. Your provider does not care about the file extension 🙂.

Have you tried create an elasticsearch_kibana_object using your snipped above? Let me know if you get the following error:

elastic: Error 400 (Bad Request): Rejecting mapping update to [.kibana] as the final mapping would have more than 1 type: [search, doc] [type=illegal_argument_exception]
