Layers that request data from {es} are narrowed when you submit a <<kibana-concepts-searching-your-data, search request>>.
|

Layers narrowed by semi-structured search and filters contain the filter icon image:maps/images/filter_icon.png[] next to the layer name in the legend.
|
||||
|
||||
Layers that request data from {es} using an <<index-patterns, index pattern>> with a configured time field are narrowed by the <<set-time-filter, global time filter>>.
|

These layers contain the clock icon image:maps/images/clock_icon.png[clock icon] next to the layer name in the legend. Use the time slider to quickly select time slices within the global time filter range.

Click previous and next buttons to advance the time slice backward or forward. Click play to animate your spatial temporal data.

You can create a layer that requests data from {es} from the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* <<vector-layer>> with:
|
||||
|
||||
** Documents
|
||||
|
||||
** Clusters and grid
|

|

** Point to point
|
||||

** Top hits per entity
|

** Tracks

Only layers requesting data from {es} are narrowed by global search and global time.
|
||||
To add a layer that requests data from {es} to your map, click *Add layer*, then select one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* Documents
|
||||
|
||||
* Choropleth
|

==== Narrow layers by global search
|
||||
|
||||
Layers that request data from {es} are narrowed when you submit a <<kibana-concepts-searching-your-data, search>>.
|
||||
Layers narrowed by semi-structured search and filters contain the filter icon image:maps/images/filter_icon.png[] next to the layer name in the legend.
|
||||
|
||||
To prevent the global search from applying to a layer, configure the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* In *Filtering*, clear the *Apply global search to layer data* checkbox to turn off global search for the layer source.
|
||||
|
||||
* In *Term joins*, clear the *Apply global search to join* checkbox to turn off global search for the <<terms-join, term join>>.

==== Narrow layers by global time
|
||||
|
||||
Layers that request data from {es} using an <<index-patterns, index pattern>> with a configured time field are narrowed by the <<set-time-filter, global time>>.
|
||||
These layers contain the clock icon image:maps/images/clock_icon.png[clock icon] next to the layer name in the legend.
|
||||
|
||||
Use the time slider to quickly select time slices within the global time range:
|
||||
|
||||
. Click image:maps/images/timeslider_toggle_icon.png[timeslider icon] to open the time slider.
|
||||
. Click previous and next buttons to advance the time slice backward or forward.
|
||||
. Click play to animate your spatial temporal data.
|
||||
|
||||
To prevent the global time filter from applying to a layer, configure the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* In *Filtering*, clear the *Apply global time to layer data* checkbox to turn off the global time for the layer source.
|
||||
|
||||
* In *Term joins*, clear the *Apply global time to join* checkbox to turn off the global time for the <<terms-join, term join>>.

[[maps-refresh-layer]]
|

==== Refresh layer data
|
||||
|
||||
Layers that request data from {es} re-fetch data when <<set-time-filter, automatic refresh>> fires and when you click *Refresh*.
|
||||
|
||||
To prevent refreshing layer data, configure the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* In *Filtering*, clear the *Apply global refresh to layer data* checkbox to turn off refresh for the layer source.

You can prevent the search bar from applying search context to a layer by configuring the following:

|

* In *Filtering*, clear the *Apply global filter to layer data* checkbox to turn off the global search context for the layer source.

* In *Term joins*, clear the *Apply global filter to join* checkbox to turn off the global search context for the <<terms-join, term join>>.
