Hi team,  
i`m embedding the EUI Expanding rows Table. My task is to fetch logs from elastic and visualize it with this table. My Kibana version is 6.7.0 and my vis is based on [kbn\_tp\_custom\_visualizations](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/6.7/test/plugin_functional/plugins/kbn_tp_custom_visualizations) template.  
I have read documentation, but still confused, so my questions are:

1. what is the short skeleton of steps to embed it?
2. Should i use [The official Node.js client for Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/javascript-api/6.x/introduction.html#introduction) to get logs from elastic to my table?

Hey @masterThomas, the [Plugin Development](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/plugin-development.html) section of our docs has some good resources for getting started writing your own custom plugins, which can be used to write visualizations like the example you've linked to.
