Managing OpenSearch Dashboards plugins |
100 |
|
OpenSearch Dashboards provides a command line tool called opensearch-dashboards-plugin
for managing plugins. This tool allows you to:
- List installed plugins.
- Install plugins.
- Remove an installed plugin.
Major, minor, and patch plugin versions must match OpenSearch major, minor, and patch versions in order to be compatible. For example, plugins versions 2.3.0.x work only with OpenSearch 2.3.0. {: .warning}
- A compatible OpenSearch cluster
- The corresponding OpenSearch plugins installed on that cluster
- The corresponding version of OpenSearch Dashboards (for example, OpenSearch Dashboards 2.3.0 works with OpenSearch 2.3.0)
The following table lists available OpenSearch Dashboards plugins.

To view the list of installed plugins from the command line, use the following command:
sudo bin/opensearch-dashboards-plugin list
To remove a plugin:
sudo bin/opensearch-dashboards-plugin remove <plugin-name>
Then remove all associated entries from opensearch_dashboards.yml
.
For certain plugins, you must also remove the "optimize" bundle. This is a sample command for the Anomaly Detection plugin:
sudo rm /usr/share/opensearch-dashboards/optimize/bundles/opensearch-anomaly-detection-opensearch-dashboards.*
Then restart OpenSearch Dashboards. After you remove any plugin, OpenSearch Dashboards performs an optimize operation the next time you start it. This operation takes several minutes even on fast machines, so be patient.
OpenSearch Dashboards doesn’t update plugins. Instead, you have to remove the old version and its optimized bundle, reinstall them, and restart OpenSearch Dashboards:
-
Remove the old version:
sudo bin/opensearch-dashboards-plugin remove <plugin-name>
-
Remove the optimized bundle:
sudo rm /usr/share/opensearch-dashboards/optimize/bundles/<bundle-name>
-
Reinstall the new version:
sudo bin/opensearch-dashboards-plugin install <plugin-name>
-
Restart OpenSearch Dashboards.
For example, to remove and reinstall the Anomaly Detection plugin:
sudo bin/opensearch-dashboards-plugin remove anomalyDetectionDashboards
sudo rm /usr/share/opensearch-dashboards/optimize/bundles/opensearch-anomaly-detection-opensearch-dashboards.*
sudo bin/opensearch-dashboards-plugin install <AD OpenSearch Dashboards plugin artifact URL>
