The problem is that Elasticsearch doesn't return 0 values for the query, so they aren't shown here.

It looks like you're using a terms agg here. In that case, you can use the _JSON Input_ for the aggregation (it's hidden under Advanced) and add the following to get 0 values to show up:

```auto
{ "min_doc_count":0 }

```

This will cause Elasticsearch to "zero fill" the values, and then they'll show up in the heatmap.
