Plugin API changes in 8.0edit
This page discusses the plugin API changes that you need to be aware of when migrating your application to Kibana 8.0.
Client upgraded to v8.0
Elasticsearch service provides the new version of the elasticsearch-js library.
This issue
lists all changes, including the breaking changes.
Refer to #113950
Support for deprecated kbn-system-api header removed
Kibana removed support for the deprecated kbn-system-api header.
Use the asSystemRequest flag instead:
const response = await core.http.get({
path: '/url',
asSystemRequest: true,
});
Refer to #112505
IndexPatterns.create removed
IndexPatterns.create has been removed in favor of IndexPatterns.createAndSave
to enforce saving index patterns. This eliminates the
creation of an index pattern that can’t be referenced by other saved objects or Kibana apps.
Refer to #82643
