IFrame Communicator Plugin - now available

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hi everyone.
We created an IFrame communicator plugin which enables you controlling an embedded (in an iframe) Kibana dashboard. (instead of reloading the whole page when you require a change)
The plugin demonstrates how you can communicate with the internal Kibana AngularJS framework.

It's currently not well documented (at all) - but if you need help with this - feel free to contact us and if this gets some more attraction we will add some examples
.
The code is available under:

Enjoy!
Benjamin Bondi

@bondib1 Can you please elaborate what this plugin offers.I am not clear about the offering as there is hardly any documentation at all. Some video or screenshot should help. I use kibana visualizations inside an iframe from another application. So, this could be useful for me. Thanks for sharing your work.
