Hi,

I install metricbeat just for test and now i'm not using it anymore, I want to delete all dashboards and visualizations of metricbeat that have been added.

If I delete index metricbeat, will all the vizualizations disapear ?

I think the only way to remove them is though the "Saved Objects" interface on the Kibana Management tab. You'd need to remove dashboards, searches, and visualization related to Metricbeat.
