=== Find Objects
|
|
|
|
experimental[This functionality is *experimental* and may be changed or removed completely in a future release.]
|
|
|
|
The find saved object API enables you to retrieve a paginated set of Kibana
|
|
saved objects by various conditions.
|
|
|
|
==== Request
|
|
|
|
`GET /api/saved_objects/_find`
|
|
|
|
==== Query Parameters
|
|
|
|
`per_page` (optional)::
|
|
(number) The number of objects to return per page
|
|
`page` (optional)::
|
|
(number) The page of objects to return
|
|
`type` (optional)::
|
|
(array|string) The saved object type(s) that the response should be limited to
|
|
`search` (optional)::
|
|
(string) A {ref}/query-dsl-simple-query-string-query.html[simple_query_string] Elasticsearch query to filter the objects in the response
|
|
`search_fields` (optional)::
|
|
(array|string) The fields to perform the `simple_query_string` parsed query against
|
|
`fields` (optional)::
|
|
(array|string) The fields to return in the response
|
|
`sort_field` (optional)::
|
|
(string) The field on which the response will be sorted
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
As objects change in Kibana, the results on each page of this response can
|
|
change. This makes the `find` API suitable for traditional paginated results
|
|
but not a reliable way to safely export large amounts of data.
|
|
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
==== Examples
|
|
|
|
The following example attempts to find index patterns with titles that start
|
|
with `my`:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
GET api/saved_objects/_find?type=index-pattern&search_fields=title&search=my*
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// KIBANA
|
|
|
|
A successful call returns a response code of `200` and a response body
|
|
containing a JSON structure similar to the following example:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"total": 1,
|
|
"data": [
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "my-pattern",
|
|
"type": "index-pattern",
|
|
"version": 1,
|
|
"attributes": {
|
|
"title": "my-pattern-*"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
.Multiple values for a parameter
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
For parameters that can accept multiple values (e.g. `fields`), repeat the
|
|
query parameter for each value:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
GET api/saved_objects/_find?fields=id&fields=title
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// KIBANA
|
|
|
|
==============================================
