I've setup a watcher in Kibana. The results out of this are restricted to the top 10. Is there a way to change/configure this value? Any pointers appreciated.

Hello,
Did you set up an advanced watch or a threshold alert? If it's an advanced one, could you post the watch content here?

You can add a `size` parameter in the request body.
```auto
"body": {
"size": 10,
"query": {
"bool": {
```
