I have a lot of data I need a copy of thats currently stored in Kibana. As far as I know all of the data stored in indicies on the machine is in an unreadable format so I cannot simply copy the files. I tried generating a csv that I could download. The files ended up being too big even after I changed the size limit and query timeout limit. I am on kibana 6.5.1 and in a time crunch thanks for the help let me know if you need any more information from me.
I assume you're referring to the Elasticsearch data your accessing from within Kibana. If that is the case, there are a few ways:
- Export the data problematically yourself using the Scroll API.
- Use software/plugins which already implement this API - one example of this is the elasticsearch-dump project.
- Starting with X-Pack in 6.0 you can export CSV data within reporting in Kibana however this there is a limit to the size of these reports. If your looking to download more than 1G or so, this probably isn't the best option at this time.
