Good Morning. I can not create views on graphs using the [message] . Me returns that field is analyzed , and therefore can not use this idea , unlike the [host] I have the anfitrião.raw and can use them in the chart normally.

Someone can tell me where I am going wrong ?

Thank you.

Where is the data coming from? If you've got `.raw` fields that you haven't added yourself, I'm guessing Logstash. In that case, any string field should have an associated `.raw` version that is not analyzed. If that's not the case for your message field, you will have to add a rule to create one and re-index your data.

Logstash adds the `.raw` copy using the [dynamic templates](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/dynamic-templates.html), and you could do the same if you aren't using Logstash.
