Hi,  
For generating Graph in kibana, i have a dataset of with columns like Application Number, Action Taken, Phone Number......  
There will be multiple phone numbers for many Application Numbers, like that many variables are available. I have indexed the dataset in kibana,  
To visualize that may i know whether data need any other preparation.  
Because when is load in graph and select Application Number and Phone Number i am getting

rror 400 Bad Request: Fielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [AppKey\_1] in order to load fielddata in memory by uninverting the inverted index.

May i know how to prepare the data for graph  
Thanks  
Prem

You are trying to work on fields, that have been indexed as `text`. You cannot do the required aggregations (terms, significant terms) on those fields, that Graph needs to do. Usually you would want to index those fields (additionally) as a `keyword` field. That enabled graph to do the required aggregations on it. See also the documentation of the [`keyword`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/keyword.html) type in Elasticsearch.

Cheers,  
Tim

Hi,

unfortunately you currently cannot add a Graph to the Dashboard for now. You can follow [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18499](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18499) for updates on that topic.

Cheers,  
Tim
