Hello all,

I want to create a table with an "Error" column which will be populated with the values "YES" or "NO", depending on whether a sum aggregation has the value lower or greater than 0.

My metric looks as such:  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/7/17331cefd4d5990464c8bd1ea45fb9453fd52bea.png)

The only problem is that I don't want to display the actual sum of errors, but I want to display YES if sum (error) \> 0 and "NO" otherwise.

Is there a way to do that in Kibana? Where should I insert this condition?

Thanks in advance!

You can't do this in the Kibana Table visualization because it doesn't support bucket scripts like the one you are interested in doing. Here are your options:

- Write an ES SQL query in Kibana Canvas that can display this data
- Write a custom query and visualization in Vega
- Use a [Continuous Transform](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/transforms.html) to index pre-aggregated data, and then you can script against the pre-aggregated data
