I have four fields indexed (clientname (string), clientusage (number), clientmaxlimit (number), stamp (timestamp). I want to plot client usage over the time against its maxlimit. I am not able to do so as Kibana not allowing raw values to choose as X/Y axis. Any suggestion how to plot this kind of pattern ?

Note: multiple clients have multiple thresholds and their usage will vary day to day

Hi Schand,

I asked a similar question recently and Tim kindly pointed me at why the display of raw (unaggregated data) isn't possible with Kibana and what some potential solutions might be.

Take a look at this link:

> Hi All, I am using the elapsed-filter plugin to obtain processing time for transactions crossing a bunch of services. I've been able to create a time-based histogram of this data in which the Y-axis shows the average processing time for each time-bucket that Kibana has scaled the graph into. This is OK but isn't really useful for viewing outlier transactions, as they completely disappear due to the averaging. Ideally, because I have a few hundred/few thousand measurements (rather than millions…

Cheers,  
Steve

Thx Steve for reply.

I solved my problem by using Visual builder in Time series. It helped me to plot the things the way i want.

Thx
