Hi team,

I want to show the graph of

> execution\_time(mm:ss)

for each step( of my program ) in Kibana in the order it executed( @timeline ).

I wanted to keep "no. of seconds" on Y axis and "command name" on X axis.  
Could you suggest me a way to do it? Or a better way ?

`[Note: The field execution_time (mm:ss) for me is somehow only getting stored as string. This is not letting me keep it as Y axis :frowning:]`

Thanks,  
Darshan

Hi Darshan

Can you please check the mapping of your fields in elasticsearch?

Thanks,
