Edit a line in Elastic Search through Kibana

[Yoann_Buzenet]

Hello,

Is it possible to edit a line saved in Elastic Search with Kibana ? If I browse the lines of an index, can editing via the GUI be done ? It just seems read only.

I would want to do that for making test on requests, without having to change seed every time.

Thank you
Yoann

I will presume you mean the documents in an index.

In normal sense of the word "edit", no. You can use DevTools / APIs to update documents, e.g. based on _id, amongst many other ways.

Sorry. but to me the requirement here is unclear? Perhaps you can give an example.

Yes I meant the documents, thank you.

Ok, i will do it through request in the dev tools.

I wanted to quickly edit a field in one click without writing the full request, to check how another aggregating request would perform. I'll just persist my "updating" request in a repo for that purpose.

Thank you for your answer
