Hi everyone!  
I am new in Kibana and ELK and I am trying to show multiple lines for different values of one field using the TSVB Visualization tool.

Below you can see the graph. Although I have chosen the Line Chart type, the values (time series data- speed for different items) are not connected and still shown as dots.

Any advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated!  
Thank you in advance.

Hey @marrel, welcome to the discussion boards!

Which version of Kibana are you using? in `7.5` we switched the underlying chart implementation to standardize our rendering toolset across Kibana, so I want to make sure we didn't introduce an issue there.

I’m not 100% sure but it looks like you have a time interval of 5 minutes set, but the data are available only every 15 minutes. If that's the case, then there's missing data points in the charts. Can you change the time interval to `auto` to see if that changes anything for you?

If not, could you capture a HAR for the TSVB data request? A HAR is a recording of your browser's communication with the Kibana server. If you haven't done this before, I have instructions here that you can follow: [Capturing a HAR](https://gist.github.com/legrego/7154b71096a09876423e2bd61d6a3e0f)

Hello @Larry_Gregory! Happy February! Thank you very much for your prompt reply!  
Yes I use Kibana 7.5 version. Thank you for letting me know this info.. Indeed, the time interval in the graph is 5 minutes although my data are not available at equal intervals.. Taking into consideration 1 hour (60minutes), the data are updated at 00:00, 00:10, 00:30, 00:40, 01:00 and also there are missing values of my data. What do you advise me? Thank you in advance!

Hmm, that's a good question 🙂

I'm not a TSVB expert unfortunately. Did you try switching the time interval to `auto`? Did that make the chart render differently or better?

Setting the time interval to `auto`, automatically the data in the graph were presented `per 30 minutes`, almost all values were not connected and still shown as dots. In case of time interval: `10m`, some lines appeared individually in the graph.

For the time being I think that it is wiser for me to proceed with a visualization of a Line Graph in order to complete my project. Please let me know if you have any news regarding this issue. Thank you in advance.
