This page describes how to install a distributable of a plugin into a production instance of Kibana. For developer instructions see the developer guide.

You may install the plugin either from a local storage (file:///path/plugin.zip) or from a web-hosted service (http://example.com/plugin.zip).

Before the plugin installation, check your server configuration and make sure your user is in kibana group or install as kibana user to avoid file access violations.

sudo systemctl stop kibana
cd /usr/share/kibana
bin/kibana-plugin install http://example.com/plugin.zip
sudo systemctl start kibana

The first launch might take a while because of the long optimizer stage.
