# Kibana Dashboards and Lens Visualizations
Create, update, and delete Kibana dashboards and standalone Lens visualizations using the Kibana 9.4+ Dashboards and
Visualizations APIs. Produce minimal, diffable JSON bodies; prefer inline panel definitions over library references;
choose the correct dataset type (data view vs ES|QL) before writing metrics or chart layers; and follow the design
guidance in [Dashboard Design Guidelines](references/dashboard-design.md) and
[Chart Design Guidelines](references/chart-design.md) so the result reads like a well-made Kibana dashboard, not a
schema dump.
