Can we change the base URL of Kibana?

[http://localhost:5601/app/kibana#/management/kibana/index/?\_g=()](http://localhost:5601/app/kibana#/management/kibana/index/?_g=())

Can we change the kibana text into some other?

[http://localhost:5601/app/xyz#/management/kibana/index/?\_g=()](http://localhost:5601/app/xyz#/management/kibana/index/?_g=())

No. There's not any configuration parameters for replacing that.

Hello,

You must be able to modify it. This URL is generated by a piece of code.

Unfortunately, you will have to eat a lot of ctrl + alt + f on the project.

Yes, you could fork the Kibana repository and make any kind of change you like. But a user/developer capable of doing that probably wouldn't have to ask if it was possible.
