Custom Elasticsearch Query in Kibana

Is it possible to use a custom Elasticsearch query in Kibana? For example, I have a query that does several aggregations across different types, and I would like to setup a visualization for it. The Kibana UI only allows - AFAIK - relatively simple queries. This would be with the latest versions of ES (2.2.0) and Kibana (4.1.1).

Solution

  • I think Kibana 4.1 only supports queries in the form of Simple Query String Queries. But -- and this was news to me -- it looks like Kibana 4.4 supports custom queries.
