elasticsearchHow do I use Elasticsearch and Grafana together to create visualizations?
Grafana and Elasticsearch can be used together to create visualizations. To do this, first install and configure Grafana and Elasticsearch. Then, create a data source in Grafana that connects to the Elasticsearch instance. After the data source is set up, create a new dashboard and add a graph visualization. Finally, configure the graph visualization to show the desired data from the Elasticsearch instance.
Example code
# Create data source
$ curl -X POST \
http://localhost:3000/api/datasources \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"name": "Elasticsearch",
"type": "elasticsearch",
"url": "http://localhost:9200",
"access": "proxy"
}'
# Create graph visualization
$ curl -X POST \
http://localhost:3000/api/dashboards/db \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"title": "My Dashboard",
"panels": [
{
"type": "graph",
"datasource": "Elasticsearch",
"title": "My Graph Visualization"
}
]
}'
Then, configure the graph visualization to show the desired data from the Elasticsearch instance. This can be done by using the query editor to create the query that will be used to retrieve the data from the Elasticsearch instance.
