Hi

Elastic/Kibana 6.4.3

I do not know the available appId's, but I presume that appId " **monitoring**" is correct.

Since, default is " **home**", and URL for this is like this:

> ...:5601/app/kibana#/home?\_g=()

So when I changed:

> kibana.defaultAppId: "monitoring"

And entered url " **http://....:5601**", then browser redirects me to this url:

> ...:5601/app/kibana#/monitoring?\_g=()

Which looks to me is incorrect, since Monitoring tab is not opening.

When I hover onto Monitoring tab, I get the following URL:

> http://...:5601/app/monitoring

So "kibana#/" is excessive.

Or there is another explanation..

Regards  
Raul

Hello, you can use `server.defaultRoute: "/app/monitoring"` instead.
