Elasticsearch

Use the integration to gain visibility from logging or APM Elastic platform.

Overview

Elasticsearch has become the de facto standard open source logging database. Many users want to interact with data in Elasticsearch in their automation workflows. With this integration you get to explore the search API in Fylamynt.

Use Cases

The integration between Fylamynt and Elasticsearch lets you:

  • Use the search action - (Returns search hits that match the query defined in the request). You can provide search queries using the q query string parameter or request body.

Configure Elasticsearch in Fylamynt

  • Navigate to Settings > Integrations > Elasticsearch

  • Configure a new integration instance

Details needed to set up Elasticsearch instance in Fylamynt:

Parameters

Description

Required

API Key ID

Elastic search API key id

True

API Key Value

Elastic search API key value

True

Cloud ID

Unique Id to configure your client to work with your Elastic Cloud deployment

True

Follow the steps listed below in your Elasticsearch Account and get the desired parameters to enter in Fylamynt

  • Login to your Elasticsearch cloud

  • Open Kibana in your deployment that you want to integrate

  • In your left side navigation panel go to management section and click on Dev Tools

  • Run the following query and copy the output

POST /_security/api_key
{
  "name": "fylamynt_api_key",
  "role_descriptors": {
    "role1": {
      "indices": [
        {
          "names": [
            "*"
          ],
          "privileges": [
            "read"
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
  • Output should look like something

{
  "id" : "mKPFnnkBVpgijiDOsaVo",
  "name" : "fylamynt_api_key",
  "api_key" : "TvgPfIY5RSeRKYCC9yF8XQ"
}
  • Copy the id and paste it in Elastic Search API key id section and copy api_key and paste it in Elastic search API key value
