Hi All  
I am using kibana-6.2.4-x86\_64.rpm  
My Use case is as follows

I have one data field as below

1. log\_url = http:/xx.yy.zz/dir/result/output.log  
Using the above filed I could create a scripted field using painless to get the logfile name as below.
2. logname: output.log

But now I want to create a hyperlink as below which can be clicked by kibana view and it should directly download the logfile in the system. is it possible usecase ?  
3. loglink: output --\> http:/xx.yy.zz/dir/result/output.log  
log\_url value is too big to show in the dashboard hence looking for any hyperlink/label just to click and download.

You should be able to edit the index pattern definition, edit that field definition so it is a link, and then format that as you wish.
