Hello guys, I'm a newbie to Kibana.  
I have the following index created in Elasticsearch which I need to visualize "pressure(value)" over "registrydate" in Kibana.(Line Chart)  
How could it possible to do it in Kibana?

Thanks in advance!!

You will have to flatten the data in Elasticsearch in order to achieve this as Kibana doesn't support nested fields completely.
