In my recent post, I wrote about getting started with Kibana dashboards in PeopleTools 8.58 using application data. In that post, we saw how we can deploy and use some of the delivered Kibana dashboards that were built using application data (search indices).
Refer: PeopleTools 8.58 - Application Data and Kibana Dashboards
While it is nice to use some of the delivered dashboards as examples to kick the tires, we don't have to wait for Oracle/PeopleSoft to deliver search indices (based on application data) and Kibana dashboards (based on those search indices) to take advantage of this functionality. The entire framework is available in PeopleTools! Why not build (configure) our own from scratch?
This post will provide details on how we can do just that.
Demonstration
The below video shows a completely custom Kibana Dashboard configured as a Tile and rendered using the Kibana Visualizer delivered in PeopleSoft.
In this example, I used Integration Broker asynchronous message data (PSAPMSGPUBHDR table) as the 'application data' use case.
Integration Broker > Service Operations Monitor > Monitoring > Asynchronous Services

PeopleBooks: Understanding Application Data and Kibana Dashboards
The PeopleBooks referenced above describes the process of creating visualizations in Kibana and making them available as tiles (or related content). Before we begin with the first step of creating visualizations and dashboards in Kibana, we must create and deploy a search definition based on the required application data, crawl the search index and ensure that it is available in Elasticsearch. This is required because the Kibana visualization will be built based on this application search index.The below posts detail the end to end process in three parts.
DIY - Kibana Dashboards with Application Data - Part 1
This post covers how we can create a search definition based on application data, deploy the search index on Elasticsearch and verify the search index functionality.
DIY - Kibana Dashboards with Application Data - Part 2
This post covers how we can create Visualizations and Dashboards in Kibana using PeopleSoft application data (search indices).
DIY - Kibana Dashboards with Application Data - Part 3
This post will cover how we can import Kibana Dashboards (and Visualizations) into PeopleSoft, configure and deploy them as PeopleSoft visualizations (tiles, related content, etc.).
