Hello everyone, I am trying to custom the labels on the right-side panel in Kibana in order to have a custom name instead of the IP address, that way its easier to get an exact location instead of memorizing all the IP address. I attached a screenshot of what I mean, please help.! [Capture|151x260](https://discuss.elastic.co/uploads/short-url/mNFEvWwYY2gBg298t4NYKCi4j8f.png) ---

You can use the static lookup field formatter in the index pattern settings. ---

Sorry @lukas Im new at Elastic Stack not sure what you mean. Do you know of an article that I can read about it? or can you explain a little bit more? ---

I just realized that you're dealing with an IP field so it won't actually work until [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/45585](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/45585) is merged. If you go to Management, then Index Patterns, select your index pattern, then edit the field in question, you can select different "field formatters" to display your data in a specific way. One of those is the "static lookup", which will allow you to do what you've suggested (i.e. display specific IP addresses as custom names). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/b/cbf97531be67b8aa43a634270923efb30f64c189.png) ---

@lukas so with the IPs there is no static lookup option right now? is what I am understanding?, the .js code on the link you provide, where it goes? ---

That's correct, the link I sent above fixes this so that there will be this option for IP addresses, but it won't be released until 7.5. Alternatively you could create a scripted field that returns the value as a string, and then you could use the static lookup. ---
