I am creating a canvas visualization for a dashboard to show the summary of one data field, for example: total count of a data field from one or multiple index.  
However, this count is maxed at 1000.  
Is this any way can remove the max limitation of 1000?

If you are just interested in the count then that can be done in the query itself. Sounds like you are returning all results then doing a count.

```auto
SELECT COUNT(fieldname) FROM index

```

Then you just show the value.

When I've done this the max was 10,000 though. Never seen a 1,000 cap of anything.
