Hi All,

I was wondering if I can create my own visuals using HTML/CSS then upload it the dashboard, is that possible because I can't find it in the docs?

Thanks

Hi @OAJ

no, that is not possible in Kibana.  
You can use Vega to build custom visualizations: [Vega | Kibana Guide [8.15] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/vega.html) (a gallery of examples is avaialble here: [Example Gallery | Vega](https://vega.github.io/vega/examples/) ).

There's also a very long route, that includes developing a custom Kibana plugin on your own that satisfy the embeddables API for the custom chart. But I would not recommend that, just mentioning for completeness.
