<p>APM Server comes packaged with example Kibana dashboards, visualizations,
and searches for visualizing APM Server data in Kibana.</p>
<p>To load the dashboards, you can either enable dashboard loading in the
<code class="literal">setup.dashboards</code> section of the <code class="literal">apm-server.yml</code> config file, or you can
run the <code class="literal">setup</code> command. Dashboard loading is disabled by default.</p>
<p>When dashboard loading is enabled, APM Server uses the Kibana API to load the
sample dashboards. Dashboard loading is only attempted when APM Server starts up.
If Kibana is not available at startup, APM Server will stop with an error.</p>
<p>To enable dashboard loading, add the following setting to the config file:</p>
<div class="pre_wrapper lang-yaml">
<div class="console_code_copy" title="Copy to clipboard"></div>
<pre class="programlisting prettyprint lang-yaml">setup.dashboards.enabled: true</pre>
</div>
<div class="position-relative"><h3><a id="_configuration_options_5"></a>Configuration options</h3><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>You can specify the following options in the <code class="literal">setup.dashboards</code> section of the
<code class="literal">apm-server.yml</code> config file:</p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="_setup_dashboards_enabled"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.enabled</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>If this option is set to true, APM Server loads the sample Kibana dashboards
automatically on startup. If no other options are set, the dashboard are loaded
from the local <code class="literal">kibana</code> directory in the home path of the installation.</p>
<p>To load dashboards from a different location, you can configure one of the
following options: <a class="xref" href="configuration-dashboards.html#directory-option" title="setup.dashboards.directory"><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.directory</code></a>,
<a class="xref" href="configuration-dashboards.html#url-option" title="setup.dashboards.url"><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.url</code></a>, or
<a class="xref" href="configuration-dashboards.html#file-option" title="setup.dashboards.file"><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.file</code></a>.</p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="directory-option"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.directory</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>The directory that contains the dashboards to load. The default is the <code class="literal">kibana</code>
folder in the home path.</p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="url-option"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.url</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>The URL to use for downloading the dashboard archive. If this option
is set, APM Server downloads the dashboard archive from the specified URL
instead of using the local directory.</p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="file-option"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.file</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>The file archive (zip file) that contains the dashboards to load. If this option
is set, APM Server looks for a dashboard archive in the specified path
instead of using the local directory.</p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="_setup_dashboards_beat"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.beat</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>In case the archive contains the dashboards for multiple Beats, this setting
lets you select the Beat for which you want to load dashboards. To load all the
dashboards in the archive, set this option to an empty string. The default is
<code class="literal">"apm-server"</code>.</p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="_setup_dashboards_kibana_index"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.kibana_index</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>The name of the Kibana index to use for setting the configuration. The default
is <code class="literal">".kibana"</code></p>
<div class="position-relative"><h4><a id="_setup_dashboards_index"></a><code class="literal">setup.dashboards.index</code></h4><a class="edit_me" rel="nofollow" title="Edit this page on GitHub" href="https://github.com/elastic/apm-server/edit/6.2/docs/copied-from-beats/dashboardsconfig.asciidoc">edit</a></div>
<p>The Elasticsearch index name. This setting overwrites the index name defined
in the dashboards and index pattern. Example: <code class="literal">"testbeat-*"</code></p>
