## Summary
Close https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/183686
Adds a new sorting option "Recently viewed". Recently viewed dashboards
will be shown at the top of the list. The remaining dashboards are
sorted by last updated at.
- This is a default option unless another option was explicitly selected
before (and saved in local storage)
- If there are no recently viewed dashboards, then this sorting option
is hidden, and "last updated at" is default like before
- This option is only added to the dashboard listing
Implementation:
- Recently viewed dashboard are stored in local storage as a queue with
20 items max
- I reused the existing RecentlyAccessedService we've been using for
sidenav's recently viewed section. For this, I moved it to a separate
package. The service already handles a lot of edge cases like spaces,
key hashing, and deduping.
- The sorting part in EUITable is a bit hacky. It doesn't support custom
internal sorting (like we do with title and lastUpdatedAt), so I had to
sort the list myself and then tell EUITable not to do any sorting in
case "Recently viewed" option is selected. [slack

Getting Started
If you just want to try Kibana out, check out the Elastic Stack Getting Started Page to give it a whirl.
If you're interested in diving a bit deeper and getting a taste of Kibana's capabilities, head over to the Kibana Getting Started Page.
Using a Kibana Release
If you want to use a Kibana release in production, give it a test run, or just play around:
- Download the latest version on the Kibana Download Page.
- Learn more about Kibana's features and capabilities on the Kibana Product Page.
- We also offer a hosted version of Kibana on our Cloud Service.
Building and Running Kibana, and/or Contributing Code
You might want to build Kibana locally to contribute some code, test out the latest features, or try out an open PR:
- CONTRIBUTING.md will help you get Kibana up and running.
- If you would like to contribute code, please follow our STYLEGUIDE.mdx.
- For all other questions, check out the FAQ.md and wiki.
Documentation
Visit Elastic.co for the full Kibana documentation.
For information about building the documentation, see the README in elastic/docs.
Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch
Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.
Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.
Situation | Example Kibana version | Example ES version | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|
Versions are the same. | 7.15.1 | 7.15.1 | 💚 OK |
ES patch number is newer. | 7.15.0 | 7.15.1 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES minor number is newer. | 7.14.2 | 7.15.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES major number is newer. | 7.15.1 | 8.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
ES patch number is older. | 7.15.1 | 7.15.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES minor number is older. | 7.15.1 | 7.14.2 | 🚫 Fatal error |
ES major number is older. | 8.0.0 | 7.15.1 | 🚫 Fatal error |
