Hello,

I have a data model similar to the following:  
{"parent": A, "child", a}  
with multiple children  
{"parent": A, "child", b}  
{"parent": A, "child", c}  
{"parent": A, "child", d}  
...  
{"parent": B, "child", b}  
{"parent": B, "child", c}  
{"parent": B, "child", d}  
...  
(all parents and children are strings)

These are loaded into elastic and kibana with with the following index pattern in kibana:  
parent  
parent.keyword (searchable and aggregate-able)  
child  
child.keyword (searchable and aggregate-able)

in graph I have added field source for verticies:  
parent.keyword  
and  
child.keyword

and I search for A

results:  
despite clicking on + with A in focus or the link button, only 2 of the n children are shown. (so a and b are shown with an edge, but c, d, etc. are not shown)

I did a dig through some documentation but did not see a config somewhere that would define a return of only 2 results. What am I missing?

Thanks

Hey @queenstownswords,  
There are some troubleshooting tips for graph here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/graph-troubleshooting.html#\_why\_are\_results\_missing](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/graph-troubleshooting.html#_why_are_results_missing)

Can you try unchecking "Significant links" and reducing the "Certainty" down to 1 to see if that helps? If you have a medium/large dataset, then you may need to increase the "Sample size" too:

Thank you Mr. Gregory.
