The timezone that Kibana uses. The default value of Browser uses the timezone detected by the browser.

dateNanosFormat

The format to use for displaying pretty formatted dates of Elasticsearch date_nanos type.

defaultIndex

The top N most popular fields to show.

fileUpload:maxFileSize

Sets the file size limit when importing files. The default value is 100MB. The highest supported value for this setting is 1GB.

filterEditor:suggestValues

Set this property to false to prevent the filter editor and KQL autocomplete from suggesting values for fields.

autocomplete:valueSuggestionMethod

When set to terms_enum, autocomplete uses the terms enum API for value suggestions. Kibana returns results faster, but suggestions are approximate, sorted alphabetically, and can be outside the selected time range. (Note that this API is incompatible with Document-Level-Security.) When set to terms_agg, Kibana uses a terms aggregation for value suggestions, which is slower, but suggestions include all values that optionally match your time range and are sorted by popularity.

autocomplete:useTimeRange

Disable this property to get autocomplete suggestions from your full dataset, rather than from the current time range.

The numeral pattern for the "percent" format.

histogram:barTarget

When date histograms use the auto interval, Kibana attempts to generate this number of bars.

histogram:maxBars

To improve performance, limits the density of date and number histograms across Kibana using a test query. When the test query contains too many buckets, the interval between buckets increases. This setting applies separately to each histogram aggregation, and does not apply to other types of aggregations. To find the maximum value of this setting, divide the Elasticsearch search.max_buckets value by the maximum number of aggregations in each visualization.

history:limit

In fields that have history, such as query inputs, show this many recent values.

metaFields

Fields that exist outside of _source. Kibana merges these fields into the document when displaying it.

sort:options

Options for the Elasticsearch sort parameter.

state:storeInSessionStorage

[preview] This functionality is in technical preview and may be changed or removed in a future release. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

Enabling this setting stores part of the URL in your browser session to keep the URL short.

theme:darkMode

theme:version

Kibana only ships with the v8 theme now, so this setting can no longer be edited.
