=== Connect Kibana with Elasticsearch
Before you can start using Kibana, you need to tell it which Elasticsearch index(es) you want to explore. The first time you access Kibana, you are prompted to define an _index pattern_ that matches the name of one or more of your indices. That's it. That's all you need to configure to start using Kibana. You can add index patterns at any time from the <<settings-create-pattern,Settings tab>>.
