Creating the dashboard

We created the visualization for showing metric data in the previous chapter and saved it under the Visualize tab of Kibana. Now, by using these visualizations, we'll design a new dashboard. To create the dashboard, click on the Dashboard link on the left-hand side menu in Kibana:

We will get a empty screen with a message This dashboard is empty. Let's fill it up! We need to do the following to create a dashboard:

1. Click on the Add button on the page or Add link on the top menu.
2. On the Add Panel screen, we have two options: Visualization and Saved Search.
3. Under Visualization, add the visualization that we created and saved earlier:

4. Under Saved Search, add the saved search under Kibana Discover.
5. After adding all the required visualizations, click on the up arrow in the top-right corner.
6. This will show all visualizations...
