Display live image data (base64 jpeg) in Kibana

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

I have Base64 encoded jpeg image data stored in Elasticseach which I want to display in a Kibana Dashboard (or with Canvas). I'm able to to that with a static image using the markdown visualization. But how can I do that with data from Elasticserch? I couldn't find any examples...

You can use a Url field-formatter (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/field-formatters-string.html) and just use the base64-string as a src attribute, using the Image-type.

something like
image

I hardcoded that base64 image, but that could reference your field-value with {{value}}

This is really useful, but would it be possible to provide an example of the full markdown string to pull this value from a message from within elasticsearch db?

Thanks
