Kibana APIs
1.0.2

Base URL
https://localhost:5601

The Kibana REST APIs enable you to manage resources such as connectors, data views, and saved objects. The API calls are stateless. Each request that you make happens in isolation from other calls and must include all of the necessary information for Kibana to fulfill the request. API requests return JSON output, which is a format that is machine-readable and works well for automation.

To interact with Kibana APIs, use the following operations:

  • GET: Fetches the information.
  • PATCH: Applies partial modifications to the existing information.
  • POST: Adds new information.
  • PUT: Updates the existing information.
  • DELETE: Removes the information.

You can prepend any Kibana API endpoint with kbn: and run the request in Dev Tools → Console. For example:

GET kbn:/api/data_views

For more information about the console, refer to Run API requests.

NOTE: Access to internal Kibana API endpoints will be restricted in Kibana version 9.0. Please move any integrations to publicly documented APIs.

Documentation source and versions

This documentation is derived from the main branch of the kibana repository. It is provided under license Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International.

This documentation contains work-in-progress information for future Elastic Stack releases.

This is version 1.0.2 of this API documentation. Last update on Feb 11, 2025.

Authentication

The API accepts 2 different authentication methods:

Api key auth (http_api_key)

These APIs use key-based authentication. You must create an API key and use the encoded value in the request header. For example: Authorization: ApiKey base64AccessApiKey

Basic auth (http)

Basic auth tokens are constructed with the Basic keyword, followed by a space, followed by a base64-encoded string of your username:password (separated by a : colon).

Example: send a Authorization: Basic aGVsbG86aGVsbG8= HTTP header with your requests to authenticate with the API.







Get the rule types

GET /api/alerting/rule_types

If you have read privileges for one or more Kibana features, the API response contains information about the appropriate rule types. For example, there are rule types associated with the Management > Stack Rules feature, Analytics > Discover and Machine Learning features, Observability features, and Security features. To get rule types associated with the Stack Monitoring feature, use the monitoring_user built-in role.

    Hide response attributes Show response attributes object
    • action_groups array[object]

      An explicit list of groups for which the rule type can schedule actions, each with the action group's unique ID and human readable name. Rule actions validation uses this configuration to ensure that groups are valid.

Add case settings

POST /api/cases/configure

Case settings include external connection details, custom fields, and templates. Connectors are used to interface with external systems. You must create a connector before you can use it in your cases. If you set a default connector, it is automatically selected when you create cases in Kibana. If you use the create case API, however, you must still specify all of the connector details. You must have all privileges for the Cases feature in the Management, Observability, or Security section of the Kibana feature privileges, depending on where you are creating cases.
