Hi, I wanted to try out x-pack graph. So I created an index, and filled it with data. I can do bar like that : ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/5/75057281f94629e6cb917c91688566a1282be2da.png) But my problem is that I can't do a simple graph 😥😥 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/f/8/f8b8fa06811ab80fb680950351adeb36483f9519.png) I used these settings ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/e/7ed139b70c779f961889164abd722cda5b061744.png) but I haven't results 😢 Settings are like that : { "query": { "query\_string": { "query": "Angular" } }, "controls": { "use\_significance": true, "sample\_size": 2000, "timeout": 5000 }, "connections": { "vertices": [ { "field": "competence", "size": 5, "min\_doc\_count": 3 } ] }, "vertices": [ { "field": "competence", "size": 5, "min\_doc\_count": 3 } ] } reponse: { "took": 0, "timed\_out": false, "failures": , "vertices": , "connections": } Thanks to read ---

Looks like your data size might be small judging from the output of Discover. Try setting `certainty` from its default value of `3` to `1`. Open the settings menu by clicking `settings` in the upper right corner of graph ![58%20AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/f/8/f89663032f5163d0fee63da87b78fe2369a138cf.png) Thanks, Nathan ---

This URL is OK ? Or Graph didn't ask on elastick server ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/f/f/ff9090a7f91a27ba74071a116c5a8c48e0d85b9e.png) ---

What version of Kibana are you using? What browser? How did you get the `settings` menu to open? That URL should be fine. The elasticsearch url is configured in kibana.yml. Thanks, Nathan ---

Did setting `Certainty` resolve the problem? ---

I cant access to your settings menu (look the first screenshot, nothing appear) ☹ Nothing appear when I click on "advanced settings". In these conditions, I can't change Certainty settings Other idea : Maybe I have an idea: Kibana is it well install ? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/9/e95342acc288980d8b30e7cb5d87a80889894104.png) ---

Are there any errors in the Chrome dev tools console when the empty `advanced settings` tab is displayed? ---

Sounds like a bug. Could you please file an issue at [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Bug\_report.md](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Bug_report.md)? ---

Ok thanks mate. I try on MacOS but I have exactly the same problem. Can you give me your data to test ? I try with this dataset but i have same issues ☹ > **[ElasticSearch Sample Data](http://ikeptwalking.com/elasticsearch-sample-data/)** > > This ElasticSearch Sample Data is for learning purpose only.
