Is it possible to have a data table where for every cell I can specify the ES query which should be used to populate that cell?

I just want to display a lot of metrics in a tabular fashion rather than having to create separate visualisation for every metric and displaying that in a dashboard.

hi @akshaymaniyar,

that's not possible on regular dashboards, but I'd create an ER here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new/choose](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new/choose)

You could also use Canvas: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/canvas.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/canvas.html) It is similar to Dashboards, but you have a lot more control of the lay-out. You can e.g. make the metrics really small and position them in tabular format.
