The Kibana module only tracks the high-level metrics. To monitor more Kibana metrics, use our monitoring feature.

The default metricset is status.

Compatibilityedit

The Kibana module is tested with Kibana 6.3.

Example configurationedit

The Kibana module supports the standard configuration options that are described in Specify which modules to run. Here is an example configuration:

metricbeat.modules:
- module: kibana
  metricsets: ["status"]
  period: 10s
  hosts: ["localhost:5601"]
  basepath: ""
  enabled: true

  # Set to true to send data collected by module to X-Pack
  # Monitoring instead of metricbeat-* indices.
  #xpack.enabled: false
