Hi there, It depends on what you are specifically trying to do when you say "extract the value." If you want to be notified as soon as a new value is indexed for a field, you might want to look into [the Watcher API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/watcher-ui.html), which will allow you to fire alerts conditionally as new data are indexed. If you are just wanting to browse your document `_source` values in the UI, the Discover app is the easiest way to do this. ---
