Data views

Data view APIs enable you to manage data views, formerly known as Kibana index patterns.

  • Use this API for existing integrations and for partial updates, where you send only the properties to change.
  • Use this API to manage individual fields and runtime fields, set the default data view, or swap references. The Data views v2 API doesn't support these tasks.
  • To manage complete data view definitions as code, use the Data views v2 API.
