In this chapter, we covered Kibana Dev Tools and the ways in which we can interact to Elasticsearch. It has a console to run Elasticsearch queries directly from Kibana. In a console, we can write multiple queries and can execute them all by simply selecting them all and clicking on the execute button. Dev Tools sends all queries to Elasticsearch one by one and then shows the results on the right pane as soon as it receives the response from Elasticsearch.
Console has other options as well, such as query formatting, through which we can properly format the Elasticsearch query from an unformatted query to a formatted syntax. If we click on the same link, it will convert the formatted query to a compact single-line formatted view and vice versa. Another option is to copy the Elasticsearch query from it console in curl
format. After copying the query in the curl format, we can directly paste on terminal to execute it. This option is quite handy, as we don't need to remember the curl format...
