Hi there,

I have a string field which is multiline, say 20 lines, and I want to see all of them in the discover table, but it get truncated and I see only few lines.  
I tried field type String, and Truncated string with 5000 chars.  
Please advise.

Thanks  
Amir

Hi  
What you could do is increase the Maximum table cell height in Kibana Advanced Settings:
