Kibana plugins
Implement add-on functionality for Kibana with plug-in modules.
The Kibana plugin interfaces are in a state of constant development. We cannot provide backwards compatibility for plugins due to the high rate of change. Kibana enforces that the installed plugins match the version of Kibana. Plugin developers must release a new version of their plugin for each new Kibana release.
The known plugins were tested for Kibana 5.x, so we are unable to guarantee compatibility with your version of Kibana. The Kibana installer rejects any plugins that haven’t been published for your specific version of Kibana.
Known plugins are developed and maintained outside of Elastic. They are not supported by Elastic. If you encounter an issue with a community plugin, contact the plugin’s owner.

To add your plugin to this page, open a pull request.
Use the following command to install a plugin:
bin/kibana-plugin install <package name or URL>
When you specify a plugin name without a URL, the plugin tool attempts to download an official Elastic plugin, such as:
$ bin/kibana-plugin install x-pack
You can download official Elastic plugins simply by specifying their name. You can alternatively specify a URL or file path to a specific plugin, as in the following examples:
$ bin/kibana-plugin install https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/packs/x-pack/x-pack-9.0.0-beta1.zip
or
$ bin/kibana-plugin install file:///local/path/to/custom_plugin.zip
You can specify URLs that use the HTTP, HTTPS, or file
protocols.
Kibana supports plugin installation via a proxy. It uses the http_proxy
and https_proxy
environment variables to detect a proxy for HTTP and HTTPS URLs.
It also respects the no_proxy
environment variable to exclude specific URLs from proxying.
You can specify the environment variable directly when installing plugins:
$ http_proxy="http://proxy.local:4242" bin/kibana-plugin install <package name or URL>
To update a plugin, remove the current version and reinstall the plugin.
To remove a plugin, use the remove
command, as in the following example:
$ bin/kibana-plugin remove x-pack
You can also remove a plugin manually by deleting the plugin’s subdirectory under the plugins/
directory.
Removing a plugin will result in an "optimize" run which will delay the next start of Kibana.
By default, the plugin manager provides you with feedback on the status of the activity you’ve asked the plugin manager to perform. You can control the level of feedback for the install
and remove
commands with the --quiet
and --silent
options. Use the --quiet
option to suppress all non-error output. Use the --silent
option to suppress all output.
By default, plugin manager installation requests do not time out. Use the --timeout
option, followed by a time, to change this behavior, as in the following examples:
bin/kibana-plugin install --timeout 30s sample-plugin
bin/kibana-plugin install --timeout 1m sample-plugin
Use the -c
or --config
options with the install
and remove
commands to specify the path to the configuration file used to start Kibana. By default, Kibana uses the configuration file config/kibana.yml
. When you change your installed plugins, the bin/kibana-plugin
command restarts the Kibana server. When you are using a customized configuration file, you must specify the path to that configuration file each time you use the bin/kibana-plugin
command.
