Hi,

How we can make permanent value for X-axis or Y a-xis in heat map chart? I want to check event\_id by timeline.  
Thanks

What exactly are you trying to display? In a heat map, the default options sound like what you probably want: an x-axis (which you could assign to event\_id using a terms aggregation) and a Value (the "heat" of the event\_id).

If that doesn't work, providing a screenshot of what you're looking at and what'd you like would help me answer more thoroughly.
