Hi,

We are using Kibana 7.4.0 and I would like to ask if is possible to create index patern in DEV TOOLS instead of manualy within GUI?

Thanks

Hi @Jiri_Safar,

Unfortunately, no. Kibana Dev Tools can be used to query Elasticsearch, but not Kibana APIs. You can use `curl` or alike to interact with Kibana API directly, see example [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.4/saved-objects-api-create.html#saved-objects-api-create-example).

Best,  
Oleg
