Kibana 8.10.0edit

Kibana 8.10.0 has been withdrawn.

For information about the Kibana 8.10.0 release, review the following information.

Security updatesedit

  • An issue was discovered by Elastic whereby sensitive information is recorded in Kibana logs in the event of an error. The issue impacts only Kibana version 8.10.0 when logging in the JSON layout or when the pattern layout is configured to log the %meta pattern.

    The issue is resolved in Kibana 8.10.1. Version 8.10.0 has been removed from our download sites.

    For more information, see our related security announcement.

Breaking changesedit

Breaking changes can prevent your application from optimal operation and performance. Before you upgrade to 8.10.0, review the breaking changes, then mitigate the impact to your application.

New summary search capabilities

Details
New summary search capabilities introduce breaking changes in various places, and we have decided to not handle backward compatibility:

  • SLO find API body parameters have changed
  • The index mapping used by the rollup data has changed, and we have added a summary index that becomes the new source of truth for search
  • The rollup transform have been updated, but existing SLO with their transform won’t be updated.

If some SLOs have been installed in a prior version at 8.10, the user will need to remove them manually from the UI, or by deleting the Saved Object and the associated Transform.

Get case metrics APIs now internal

Details
The get case metrics APIs are now internal. For more information, refer to (#162506).

Case limits

Details
Limits are now imposed on the number of objects cases can process or the amount of data those objects can store.

For the full list, refer to #146945.

addProcessorDefinition is removed

Details
The function addProcessorDefinition is removed from the Console plugin start contract (server side). For more information, refer to (#159041).

Deprecationsedit

The following functionality is deprecated in 8.10.0, and will be removed in 9.0.0. Deprecated functionality does not have an immediate impact on your application, but we strongly recommend you make the necessary updates after you upgrade to 8.10.0.

Action variables in the UI and in tests that were no longer used have been replaced

Details
The following rule action variables have been deprecated; use the recommended variables (in parentheses) instead:

  • alertActionGroup (alert.actionGroup)
  • alertActionGroupName (alert.actionGroupName)
  • alertActionSubgroup (alert.actionSubgroup)
  • alertId (rule.id)
  • alertInstanceId (alert.id)
  • alertName (rule.name)
  • params (rule.params)
  • spaceId (rule.spaceId)
  • tags (rule.tags)

For more information, refer to (#161136).
