I have logs of user logins. I need to build a table where I can see login activity of starting the first time he/she logged in, and each column would be another day( 2nd, 3rd)  
It would look something like this

 ![login](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/0/708f2106693c612f5391b3056397b7ca8a7be4df.png)  
Issue that different users have different first days , it is possible to do this in Kibana?

Hi, questions like this come up pretty often, and the short answer is "it depends". In general, **the best way to use Kibana is if you already have data stored in a way that makes it easy to visualize**. Kibana is not a general-purpose data transformation tool, first you'll need to model the data. Your _logs_ data is not _entity-centric data_, so the first step is to [transform your data so it can be visualized this way](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/transforms.html).
