Hello all,  
I am trying to get different type of messages to be displayed in my cisco dashboard.  
So say I have 3 types of messages  
Teardown TCP  
Deny TCP  
Built Inbound UDP  
and so on.  
How can I get a visualization of the initial message that would display those item listed?  
Currently, I have a saved search and adding that to the dashboard. I'd like to get lets say a Piechart showing the percentage of each message type displayed.  
Thanks

Hello,

You can create a pie chart with terms aggregation on your message field if it can lend to it?

For example - this is my visualization on system processes.

 ![03%20PM%20(2)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/7/679fd8bb9f90605e5d7f77f5f9abca18bceb5b15.png)

I am getting the top 3 values in my agg.

Does this help?

Thanks,  
Bhavya
