Hi All,

I'm new to ELK and wanted to create Kibana visualization based on the data as below:

I have data in CSV and using ELK i was able to parsed and indexed the logs and i'm using ELK 7.8V

I have data as Timestamp a, Job b, elapsed time as 5 sec  
Timestamp a1, Job b1, elapsed time as 50 sec  
Timestamp a2, Job b1, elapsed time as 130 sec  
Timestamp a3, Job b elapsed time as 50 sec  
Timestamp a4, Job c1, elapsed time as 3 sec  
Timestamp a5, Job c1, elapsed time as 50 sec like that

My requirement is to create graph so that i can see on Timestamp a, Job b, took time 5 sec, on Timestamp a3, Job b took 50 sec and this is for all the jobs with timestamp and elapsed time.

How i can create this. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks  
Uday

Hey @udaybit45!

I'm a little confused as to what sort of graph you're trying to create. Our docs around [Visualizations](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/visualize.html) outline the different solutions we have in place depending on what type of graph you're trying to create.

Because it sounds like you have something very specific in mind, you might want to pay extra attention to [Vega](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/vega-graph.html) which gives you the most control over your visualizations.
