||||
=== Maps app is now production ready
|
||||
|
||||
Maps is production ready for 7.3, and includes many improvements, including
|
||||
a new GeoJson upload and improved layer styling, aggregations, and tooltips.
|
||||
To find out what’s in Maps and how to use it, go to the <<maps, Maps documentation>>.

[float]
|
||||
==== Upload GeoJSON data (beta)
|
||||
|
||||
Maps now makes it easier for you to get your geospatial data into the Elastic Stack.
|
||||
Use the new GeoJSON upload feature to drag and drop your point, shape files,
|
||||
and features directly into {es}, so you can use them as layers in the map.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
==== More layer styling
|
||||
|
||||
Maps gives you more options for styling your layers. You can now select the
|
||||
color ramp for heatmap layers. You can also symbolize geo_point features with icons that you can color, size, and rotate based on property values.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
==== New top hits aggregation
|
||||
|
||||
The new top hits aggregation enables you to plot the most recent entities from your {es} indices.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
==== Better tooltip content
|
||||
|
||||
Maps now helps you create more in-depth tooltip content. Your tooltips can
|
||||
display information on each feature at the current location.
|
||||
To cycle through the features and view their properties, use the tooltip page controls.
|
||||
You can also include custom labels for Grid aggregation and join metrics.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
[[kerberos-7.3]]
|
||||
=== Kerberos authentication provider
|
||||
|
||||
{es} provides support for Kerberos starting in 6.6, and in 7.3,
|
||||
{kib} introduces Kerberos authentication provider. You now have single sign-on
|
||||
access and can log into {kib} without repeatedly providing your username and password.
|
||||
For details, see <<kibana-authentication, SAML single sign-on>>.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
[[snapshot-7.3]]
|
||||
=== Snapshot phase 2: restore and delete
|
||||
|
||||
The second phase of the snapshot management UI is out, and includes
|
||||
two notable enhancements: restore and delete. You can recover data and state
|
||||
from a snapshot using the new *Restore* wizard, and track its progress in the
|
||||
*Restore Status* view. You can delete snapshots, and free up repository storage space,
|
||||
in the *Snapshots* view. For more information, see <<snapshot-repositories, Snapshot and Restore>>.

|
||||
[[csv-export-7.3]]
|
||||
=== CSV export from a saved search
|
||||
|
||||
{kib} now allows you to export a saved search on a dashboard directly to CSV.
|
||||
This action is available in the dashboard panel menu for the saved search.
|
||||
To enable this feature, you must set
|
||||
`xpack.reporting.csv.enablePanelActionDownload: true` in your `kibana.yml` file.

|

[[canvas-7.3]]
|
||||
=== Canvas templates, experiences, and documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Canvas improves the user experience with new templates, experiences, and documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
==== Templates
|
||||
|
||||
Canvas is all about creating content and telling a story with your data. The
|
||||
content templates can help you facilitate this vision, and in
|
||||
7.3, Canvas releases three new templates:
|
||||
|
||||
* Pitch is a 14-page template that you can brand and customize for your
|
||||
next board-level presentation.
|
||||
|
||||
* The Status template gives you a professional template
|
||||
for status reports and other updates.
|
||||
|
||||
* The Summary template, shown below, can help you create a report with live representations
|
||||
of your data.

[float]
|
||||
==== Experiences
|
||||
|
||||
Canvas adds a number of experiences in 7.3: nudge, alignment, distribution,
|
||||
zoom, and fit-to-screen. Nudge enables you to more precisely align elements
|
||||
in your workpad. Use the up, down, left, or right arrow key to nudge an
|
||||
element by 10 pixels. To nudge an element by 1 pixel, use Shift + an arrow key.
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
==== Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Check out the
|
||||
updated <<canvas-getting-started, Getting started guide>>, the new introduction to <<canvas-workpad, Canvas workpads>>,
|
||||
and the improved <<canvas-function-reference, Canvas function reference>>.

||||
[[KQL-7.3]]
|
||||
=== KQL + autocomplete in filter aggregations
|
||||
|
||||
In 7.0 and later, the {kib} query language (KQL) is enabled by default,
|
||||
making it easier to create queries. If you have a Basic license or above,
|
||||
autocomplete is also enabled. Starting in 7.3, {kib} expands KQL and
|
||||
autocomplete support to include filter aggregations in Visualize and
|
||||
TSVB. Just start typing, and you’ll get suggestions for fields, values
|
||||
for keyword fields, and query operators.

|
||||
[[bar-charts-7.3]]
|
||||
=== Values inside bar charts
|
||||
|
||||
You can now show values directly inside a bar chart, if space is available.
|
||||
When you create the bar chart, open Panel Settings and select *Show values on chart*.

||||

[float]
|
||||
[[visual-builder-7.3]]
|
||||
=== Visual Builder: even better under a new name
|
||||
|
||||
Time Series Visual Builder is now simply referred to as TSVB. When you open
|
||||
TSVB, you’ll also notice several enhancements
|
||||
and bug fixes.
|
||||
|
||||
