Hi,  
I am new to Kibana and trying to create a multiple line graph. My data set looks like this

CHK\_IN\_DATE,CHK\_OUT\_DATE,ROOM\_TYPE\_C,SOURCE\_SITE\_C,BOARD\_BASIS\_C,PRICE,  
2015-07-10,2015-07-13,"lejlighed 40 s",travels,"Room Only",284.0586  
2015-07-10,2015-07-13,"lejlighed 20 s",travels,"Room Only",345.0552  
2015-07-03,2015-07-06,"lejlighed 61 s",feries,"Room Only",328.68  
2015-07-03,2015-07-06,"lejlighed 25 s",mybookings,"Room Only",154.5362

The graph is CHK\_IN\_DATE vs PRICE. And I need a separate line for each SOURCE\_SITE\_C. is it possible in Kibana 4 ?  
Thank You.

You can get something close to what you describe.

1. In Visualize, select Line Chart
2. For Y-Axis, select "Average", then select PRICE -- note, you can't plot the exact prices, it has to be some bucketing function
3. In X-Axis, select "Date Histogram", then select CHK\_IN\_DATE
4. Then select "Add Sub-Buckets", select "Split Lines", select "Terms", select "SOURCE\_SITE\_C"

You should get something similar to the screenshot below.

If your graph ends up being too messy with more lines than you expected, switch the order of steps 3 and 4 (or just use the arrow keys to switch the order of operations, see this [blog](https://www.elastic.co/blog/kibana-aggregation-execution-order-and-you) for explanation)
