Hello, i have the following field: "load\_average": [2.57, 2.2, 2.18], this is the JSON. I now want to use scripted fields to generate separate fields so I can visualize the loads separately. What I tried so far is: doc["os.load\_average"].value[1] This does give me the first value. But so does: doc["os.load\_average"].value[2] Is there any other way to get a specific value in an array? Kind Regards, Luca ---

By default Kibana 4 scripted fields use [Lucene expressions](http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_9_0/expressions/index.html?org/apache/lucene/expressions/js/package-summary.html), which currently only operate on numeric fields. You can turn on static Groovy scripts, which have more advanced scripting functionality (note dynamic Groovy scripts are no longer recommended) -- for more discussion on how to do that in Kibana 4 please see [this thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/calling-groovy-script-from-kibana/2542/3). ---
