Kibana is a powerful visualization tool that is part of the Elastic Stack, used primarily for exploring and visualizing data stored in Elasticsearch. It provides a user-friendly interface to create dashboards, graphs, and other visual representations of data, enabling users to gain insights and make data-driven decisions.
One common issue users encounter in Kibana is when the 'Graph' feature does not display relationships as expected. This can be frustrating, especially when you rely on visual data relationships to understand complex datasets.
The primary reason for the 'Graph' not displaying relationships is often due to incorrect data relationships or misconfigured graph settings. Kibana's Graph feature relies on the underlying data structure and configuration to visualize connections between data points.
Ensure that your data indices in Elasticsearch have the necessary fields and relationships defined. You can use the Elasticsearch Mapping to define how your data is structured and related.
