[Kibana 7.2] Insert local image on a markdown visualization

[ea1987 (andrea)]

Hi guys,
can you please explain in me details how should I achieve this requirement? I searched in the forum, but I could find only some topics about previous Kibana 6.x version.
Thank you very much!

Images have to be served by a URL. Something like ![My-Image](https://example.com/image.png).

There is a suggestion here that may help.

Load image with Markdown in Dashboard

file//usr/share/kibana/src/ui/public/image/image.png Unless you can open that file like that from your browser (and I would be really surprised if you could), it's not going to work. The path you put in there needs to load on its own for it to work right. src/ui/public isn't really the right place to drop files, that's where plugin code goes, and static files are not served from that path. In fact, I don't think there's any path that Kibana will serve static assets from. You'll need some oth…

I have used another path (most recent, I guess):

<kb_home>/src/legacy/ui/public/assets/favicons/<custom_folder>

And I refer to local png in this way

http://<kb_host>:<kb_port>/ui/favicons/<custom_folder>/<custom_image>.png

Thank you for your help Nick!

Hi,

in order to embed an image directly in the Markdown visualization you can use the „trick“ given in chapter „Embedding images“ on this website: https://logz.io/blog/kibana-hacks/

Please be aware that there are size limitations for images embedded using this way.
