Hi,

I am using ELK GA 5.0.0. I am trying to create a visualization like below;

![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/7/376fca304d69c41d9c869943b5c9bfec2a408f00.png "bar chart")

The picture represents count of logs with `user_id` having values `USER_1` and `USER_2` in separate graphs, and X-Axis having date histogram daily. In my visualization, to get the count of log entries with `user_id` value `USER_1`, I entered the below code in the JSON Input of Count Aggregation;

```
{
  "query": {
    "match": {
      "user_id": {
        "query": "USER_1"
      }
    }
  }
}

```

but still it shows the complete count. How can I create a visualization that I am trying to achieve?

Thanks in advance..

To do this you want to use a "bucket" aggregation, then choose "split bars" and use a "terms" aggregation on the field container both "USER\_1" and "USER\_2"
