Kibana generating screenshots?

mmisztal1980 · April 15, 2019, 7:25pm

A colleague of mine has shown me a rather interesting concept of grafana generating a screenshot, which can later be sent to a chat provider (such as Slack or MS Teams) via a webhook and associated with an alert or an event.

I was curious if Kibana capable of providing a similar functionality?

Hi ,
There is nothing official which does this now . Probably, you could look at this totally unsupported hackathon project which has an example of generating an image from reporting:

github.com

elastic/slackathon/blob/master/commands/dashboard.js

import fetch from 'axios';
import rison from 'rison-node';

export default () => ({
  help: 'Get a snapshot of a dashboard back',
  example: 'dashboard 75f99551-ce8e-4f28-a97d-42c932b4b35a',
  fn: args => {
    args = args.replace(/[\u2018\u2019]/g, "'").replace(/[\u201C\u201D]/g, '"');

    const dashboardID = args.split(' ')[0];
    const dashboardURL = `/app/kibana#/dashboard/${dashboardID}`;

    const config = {
      browserTimezone: 'America/Phoenix',
      layout: {
        dimensions: {
          width: 960,
          height: 720,
        },
        id: 'preserve_layout',

This file has been truncated. show original

commands/dashboard.js

Am pointing that as an example of how to build something similar yourself .

Hope this helps,
Thanks
