Hey guys,
I just started with visualizing data in Kibana and Elastic Maps, so the two questions might seem trivial, but I didn't found any solution online yet.
Is there a way to change the overlay of the layer shown in the image bewlow to show a table of the data instead of the single view that you need to click through? I look for a way to list all results in one spot with an easy overview of all of them.
It's a similar question: is it possible to link a data source (in this case it's a text document) to the layer view on the map? So that when clicking on the link you are provided with the corresponding field in the indexed document?
As I said, I'm new to this, so all advice is very welcome. Thank you!

Unfortunately, there's no direct way to change the tooltip to navigate by document to a table view. You can use an aggregated data source to see all your points together and aggregate metrics, though.

Not sure to understand this, you want to open a new web page using a field from the tooltip? or from a different place in Kibana arrive to a single feature in Elastic Maps? The first one is doable using index pattern formatters or scripted fields, the second is not possible. Please clarify if I got wrong your issue.

Alright, I see. I already aggregated the relevant data in circle shapes, but it's a bit cumbersome to circle through the data, that's why I asked.

Exactly, I would like to open a new page from the tooltip. I think scripted fields sounds like a good solution - could you say a few words about how they work? I didn't find them yet in Kibana.
If you have to build the URL, then in the Index Pattern you have to define a new Scripted Field, and use a bit of coding to set up your field.
See the minimal example of just adding the text to a fixed URL that searches on Wikipedia. Please refer to documentation for details on each input, but I think it's quite straight forward.
