[ResponseOps][Alerting V2] ESQL views by adcoelho · Pull Request #255968 · elastic/kibana

adcoelho · 2026-03-04T11:14:02Z

Summary

The focus of this PR is the view creation logic. I will create a follow-up PR with an $.alerting-episodes view when we decide which fields we want on the alerts table.

This PR adds startup initialization of ES|QL views in the Alerting v2 plugin(in addition to the existing data stream resource setup). Views are created in Elasticsearch via the /_query/view API, so alerting can use them.

There is currently a separate PR in the Elasticsearch repo that updates the Kibana system user permissions to allow for the ESQL view management.

The views created by this PR are:

$.alerting-events -> FROM .alerting-events
$.alerting-actions -> FROM .alerting-actions

…esql-views

Approving because the flagged issue might not happen before we start using the views, and only the first time kibana starts (or in integration tests).

+    initializeESQLViews({
+      logger,
+      esClient,
+    });


What happen if we try to use the views before they are created? We had a problem with the resources (datastreams & index setup) and the dispatcher that was trying to use an index before it was mapped properly...
With the other resources, at least we can do await resourceManager.waitUntilReady(); but that's not possible with the esql view initialization service. Since no other service is using the view it is fine for now, but worth flagging.

And as a more generic question (but maybe not for you), can't we just wait for both the initializeResources et initializeESQLViews to be done?

Thank you for the review!

What happens if we try to use the views before they are created? We had a problem with the resources (datastreams & index setup) and the dispatcher that was trying to use an index before it was mapped properly...

This definitely makes sense, but I deliberately did not include waitUntilReady() in this PR because, for now, there is no intent to use the views in the backend.

They are created during startup, but only the UI will use them(alert episodes table). Error handling can be done there, and the idea is to try to use what is provided by ES APIs as much as possible.

## Summary ### Key capabilities - **ES|QL-native rule evaluation** — Rules are defined as ES|QL queries with optional WHERE clause conditions, evaluated on a configurable schedule - **Alert lifecycle management** — Full episode tracking with pending → active → recovering → inactive state transitions, including configurable alert delay (consecutive breaches / duration) - **Event-driven architecture** — Alert events and actions are stored in dedicated data streams (`.alerting-events`, `.alerting-actions`) with ES|QL views for querying - **Notification dispatch pipeline** — A multi-step dispatcher that matches alert episodes to notification policies, handles throttling/suppression, and triggers Kibana Workflows using encrypted API keys - **Notification policies** — CRUD APIs and UI for creating notification policies with KQL-based rule matching, workflow integration, and API key management - **Rule authoring UI** — A shared rule form package (`@kbn/alerting-v2-rule-form`) usable standalone or embedded in Discover, with ES|QL editor, WHERE clause condition editing, recovery configuration, and live query preview - **Rule management UI** — Full rule list with pagination, enable/disable, clone, edit, and delete operations - **APM instrumentation** — Middleware and decorators for tracing rule execution and client operations ### Architecture highlights - **InversifyJS DI** — All services use constructor injection with typed tokens, scoped per-request or singleton as appropriate - **Pipeline pattern** — Rule executor and dispatcher use composable step-based pipelines - **Saved Objects** — Rules stored as hidden saved objects; notification policies stored as encrypted saved objects (for API key protection) - **Feature privileges** — Dedicated Kibana feature with read/all privileges for RBAC --- ## Contained PRs <details> <summary>Core Engine & Plugin Init (12 PRs)</summary> -
