{{product.kibana}} advanced settings [advanced-options]

Advanced Settings control the behavior of {{product.kibana}}. You can change the settings that apply to a specific space only, or to all of {{product.kibana}}. For example, you can change the format used to display dates, specify the default data view, and apply your own branding.

::::{warning} Changing a setting can affect {{product.kibana}} performance and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose. Setting a property value to a blank field reverts to the default behavior, which might not be compatible with other configuration settings. Deleting a custom setting permanently removes it from {{product.kibana}}. ::::

Settings on this page are ordered as they appear in {{product.kibana}}.
