HI Team,

I was able to generate email notifications as per the documentation in kibana, however i need to apply some filters before sending them to the respective user.  
The filter would be to apply hostname to the line chart that is available.

My second concern is that we should be able to make threshold email for every type of graphs available as only line chart is available in xpack.

Please let me know if there is any understanding gaps.

Can you link to the documentation you are describing? Do you want to apply filters to the report, or to the query that triggers the watch?
