# Exporting cAdvisor Stats to ElasticSearch
cAdvisor supports exporting stats to [ElasticSearch](https://www.elastic.co/). To use ES, you need to provide the additional flags to cAdvisor:
Set the storage driver as ES:
```
-storage_driver=elasticsearch
```
Specify ES host address:
```
-storage_driver_es_host="http://elasticsearch:9200"
```
There are also optional flags:
```
# ElasticSearch type name. By default it's "stats".
-storage_driver_es_type="stats"
# ElasticSearch can use a sniffing process to find all nodes of your cluster automatically. False by default.
-storage_driver_es_enable_sniffer=false
```
# Examples
