Dear All,

Due to some security limitation in our project we have to redirect out kibana base url to dashboards page directly.  
For Example : Kibana URL is [http://10.40.41.42/kibana/](http://10.40.41.42/kibana/) when I will access it should be redirected to dashboard page [http://10.40.41.42/kibana/app/kibana#/dashboards?\_g=()](http://10.40.41.42/kibana/app/kibana#/dashboards?_g=())

basically I want to add kibana#/dashboards instead of kibana#/home (currently it is redirected to home page [http://10.40.41.42/kibana/app/kibana#/home](http://10.40.41.42/kibana/app/kibana#/home))

I am tried to searching many .js file in Kibana folder to change kibana#/home link to kibana#/dashboards but didn't succeed .

Kindly suggest how to navigate to dashboard when I will type kibana Base URL instead of Home page(Default).

Note : I have tried to redirect with apache Web server but due to "#" symbol inside kibana#/home it is unable to read same (# is fragment anchor tag only processes at client side )

In your `kibana.yml` file change the `kibana.defaultAppId` setting from "home" to "dashboards".
