I have field state which has 2 values "BEGIN" and "END", I want to show count when state is "BEGIN" so I've tried

```auto
{
  "query": {
    "match_phrase": {
      "state": "BEGIN"
    }
  }
}

```

but nothing works, any idea how to do this. Thanks 😃

Hi @tungpzostar,

I'd first create a viz that shows count for all states (just leave metric configuration as you've showed on a screenshot) and then I'd use filter bar to filter only by `state:begin`:

If you'd do similar to my example, you'd I just have `state: BEGIN/END` instead of mine `cancelled: true/false`

I can filter out state: BEGIN but can I do count BEGIN, count END in one data table. Thanks 😃
