Inspect
editInspect
editThe Inspect view in Kibana allows you to view information about all requests that were made to collect the data displayed on the current page.
Many requests go into building visualizations in Kibana. For example, to render visualizations in the Uptime app, Kibana needs to request a list of all your monitors, data about the availability of each monitor over time, and more. If something goes wrong, the Inspect view can help you report an issue and troubleshoot with Elastic support.
Inspecting requests is available for the following apps:
- APM
- Uptime
- User Experience
Enable inspect
editTo enable inspect across apps:
- Go to Kibana’s Advanced Settings.
- Find the Observability section.
- Turn on the Inspect ES queries option.
- Click Save changes.
