ES aliases in kibana

Hello,

Do you know whether it is possible for Kibana to query ES index aliases?
The only solution I found is by rewrite rule in ngnix.
I want to create predefined search terms for users.

Yes it is, because to KB it is just an index.

What is the problem you are seeing?

Basically I can query the alias using REST API, but I cannot see the alias
as extra index in kibana. I would expect having one.

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/test_alert1/_search?pretty'

hmmm it works when I set a default index for the dashboard as alias name
So the question is how to make a filter/lucene query based on the alias
name.

Ahh yeah, you need to do that part!

If you have set the dashboard to query the alias then you don't need to
worry about the filtering or lucene query, because everything you apply to
that dashboard will only interact with the indices attached to the alias.
Unless I am misunderstanding you that is.

Yes it works. This basically means I need a separate dashboard for aliases.
I would prefer filtering one dashboard by alias name (like _alias:myalias),
but this can be a workaround for me.
Thanks.
