Hi Everyone

So i was wondering, in kibana, is it possible to pick visualize "count". and then let it count how many times a word is said in each file? Like how many times "cow" is stored.

Hope anyone can help me out

suppose taking a field name called JAXA.Now if you want to get the count of it.  
thn you can use data table in visualization .there provide the details under buckets aggregation as terms and thn in field JAXA order by term ,use asc or desc order provide the size.And run it.You will get the ans.
