Hi,

Is it possible to use a single instance of Kibana and have this instance point to several ES clusters?

Many thanks

Hi, you can configure Elasticsearch to include multiple clusters in search requests using Cross Cluster Search: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/management-cross-cluster-search.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/management-cross-cluster-search.html)
