kibana-canvas

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users design and deliver pixel-perfect, data-driven reports and dashboards in Kibana Canvas by bridging data access and visual composition so non-designers can produce presentation-quality outputs.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Clarify requirements: prompts to determine purpose (report, dashboard, slide deck), data sources, and visual layout.
• Provisioning guidance: checks for required data views and saved searches and directs users to Canvas at /app/canvas.
• Compose and export: instructs how to create workpads, add text/images/charts, bind data via Canvas expressions, and schedule or export PDFs/PNGs for reporting.
• Use Case: Create a weekly operations slide deck that pulls live metrics from Elasticsearch and exports a PDF for stakeholders.

Quick Start

Create a new Canvas workpad, attach the relevant data view or saved search, design the layout with text and chart elements, and export or schedule the report.
