Hi  
I want to customize the viewing experience in kibana and for that i want to list the log event with a custom header like following-

## Source IP Source Port User Name

value 1 value 1 value 1  
value 2 value 2 value 2  
..................................................................................  
..................................................................................  
value n value n value n

Also i want any of the field like Source IP searchable.  
Nicely appreciate if someone points me in right direction.

Regards

to show a table like that you can just create a saved search in `disover`

- select the fields you want in the left side
- click save
- put your saved search on dashboard

to search the fields you can use filters or query bar:

- click add filter
- select your field of interest
- select the operation (is?)
- enter your value (like ip)

Thanks  
I can view the data in tabular format at the moment.

But for the search, i donot want a fixed value instead i like to add a text box for the searchable value ( like source IP) so that i can search the same.
