== Get data into {kib}
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to get data into {kib} is to add a sample data set.
|
|
|
|
{kib} has several sample data sets that you can use before loading your own data:
|
|
|
|
* *Sample eCommerce orders* includes visualizations for tracking product-related information,
|
|
such as cost, revenue, and price.
|
|
|
|
* *Sample flight data* includes visualizations for monitoring flight routes.
|
|
|
|
* *Sample web logs* includes visualizations for monitoring website traffic.
|
|
|
|
To use the sample data sets:
|
|
|
|
. Go to the {kib} home page.
|
|
|
|
. Click *Load a data set and a {kib} dashboard*.
|
|
|
|
. Click *View data* and view the prepackaged dashboards, maps, and more.

|
|
NOTE: The timestamps in the sample data sets are relative to when they are installed.
|
|
If you uninstall and reinstall a data set, the timestamps change to reflect the most recent installation.
