Hi team,

how could I extract nested objects to show them on a data table in Kibana Canvas?

From documentation -\> [SQL Limitations | Elasticsearch Guide [8.5] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/sql-limitations.html)  
section -\> Paginating nested inner hits ,

I understood that it is not possible, I mean it seems not to be feasible showing all occurrences of a nested objects.

What is a feasible way to that job in Kibana Canvas, apart flattening data, so avoiding nested objects?
