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.

 ![alert](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/2/526d31b1ad793ca731e50080102c87c8966be7ed.png)

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:

> <https://github.com/elastic/slackathon/blob/master/commands/dashboard.js>

  
commands/dashboard.js

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

Hope this helps,  
Thanks  
Rashmi
