Migrate docs from AsciiDoc to Markdown. The preview can be built after #212557 is merged. @florent-leborgne please tag reviewers, add the appropriate label(s), and take this out of draft when you're ready. Note: More files are deleted than added here because the content from some files was moved to [elastic/docs-content](https://github.com/elastic/docs-content). **What has moved to [elastic/docs-content](https://github.com/elastic/docs-content)?** Public-facing narrative and conceptual docs have moved. Most can now be found under the following directories in the new docs: - explore-analyze: Discover, Dashboards, Visualizations, Reporting, Alerting, dev tools... - deploy-manage: Stack management (Spaces, user management, remote clusters...) - troubleshooting: .... troubleshooting pages **What is staying in the Kibana repo?** - Reference content (= anything that is or could be auto-generated): Settings, syntax references - Release notes - Developer guide --------- Co-authored-by: Florent Le Borgne <florent.leborgne@elastic.co>

# Add data tutorials [add-data-tutorials]
|
|
|
|
`Add Data` in the {{kib}} Home application contains tutorials for setting up data flows in the Elastic stack.
|
|
|
|
Each tutorial contains three sets of instructions:
|
|
|
|
* `On Premise.` Set up a data flow when both {{kib}} and {{es}} are running on premise.
|
|
* `On Premise Elastic Cloud.` Set up a data flow when {{kib}} is running on premise and {{es}} is running on Elastic Cloud.
|
|
* `Elastic Cloud.` Set up a data flow when both {{kib}} and {{es}} are running on Elastic Cloud.

## Creating a new tutorial [_creating_a_new_tutorial]
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new directory in the [tutorials directory](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/main/src/platform/plugins/shared/home/server/tutorials).
|
|
2. In the new directory, create a file called `index.ts` that exports a function. The function must return a function object that conforms to the `TutorialSchema` interface [tutorial schema](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/master/src/platform/plugins/shared/home/server/services/tutorials/lib/tutorial_schema.ts).
|
|
3. Register the tutorial in [register.ts](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/master/src/platform/plugins/shared/home/server/tutorials/register.ts) by adding it to the `builtInTutorials`.
|
|
4. Add image assets to the `tutorial_resources` directory.
|
|
5. Run {{kib}} locally to preview the tutorial.
|
|
6. Create a PR and go through the review process to get the changes approved.
|
|
|
|
If you are creating a new plugin and the tutorial is only related to that plugin, you can also place the `TutorialSchema` object into your plugin folder. Add `home` to the `requiredPlugins` list in your `kibana.json` file. Then register the tutorial object by calling `home.tutorials.registerTutorial(tutorialObject)` in the `setup` lifecycle of your server plugin.

### Variables [_variables]

|
|
|
String values can contain variables that are substituted when rendered. Variables are specified by `{}`. For example: `{config.docs.version}` is rendered as `6.2` when running the tutorial in {{kib}} 6.2.
