Hi,  
I am new for elasticsearch and kibana while creating visualization i have faced a small issue.  
In the following image you can see the labels are set to **1,2,3,4,5**. Instead of these i want the name of that highest count person which is mapped in same index with field name as **name**

Is there any possible way to acheive this

which version of the stack are you on ? [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/10219](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/10219) This is already available in the later versions.

Thanks

I am using kibana and elastic search with 7.5 version.  
I have seen a option to give custom label, this label will be static i want something more like dynamic.  
But, In my index pattern i am having name(string),pub\_no(number), when i am using pie chart to display top 5 based on count of pub\_no i want the label as name of that particular count. I want it to change name dynamically as some new user gets in the top, instead of changing the label manually.
