Timelines is a plugin that provides a grid component with accompanying server side apis to help users identify events of interest and perform root cause analysis within Kibana.
Using timelines in another plugin
Add TimelinesPluginUI to Kibana plugin SetupServices dependencies:
timelines: TimelinesPluginUI;
Once timelines is added as a required plugin in the consuming plugin's kibana.json, timeline functionality will be available as any other kibana plugin, ie PluginSetupDependencies.timelines.getTimeline()
