The average metric seems to only do the average of any values in a row of a certain field. I have multiple rows with just one value in this field per row and I want to know what the average of all the row field values are.

So if I have a Column Count and two rows, one with a count of 2 and another with 4, I want to see the average 3.

HI Louie

you could achieve this by using the average Aggregation in Kibana Visualization:It gives you the average of the table. Tried this on 5.4.1 More information here: [Avg aggregation | Elasticsearch Guide [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-metrics-avg-aggregation.html)
