Installing sample data [sample-data]

There are a couple ways to easily get data ingested into {{es}}.

Sample data packages available for one click installation [_sample_data_packages_available_for_one_click_installation]

The easiest is to install one or more of our available sample data packages. If you have no data, you should be prompted to install when running {{kib}} for the first time. You can also access and install the sample data packages by going to the Integrations page and selecting Sample data.

makelogs script [_makelogs_script]

The provided makelogs script will generate sample data.

bash
node scripts/makelogs --auth <username>:<password>

The default username and password combination are elastic:changeme

Make sure to execute node scripts/makelogs after {{es}} is up and running!

CSV upload [_csv_upload]

You can also use the CSV uploader provided on the Upload file page available in the list of Integrations. Navigate to Add data > Upload file to upload your data from a file.
