Hi,

Is it possible to make a pie chart using the value itself in the top hit event?  
for example, I have in my top hit event :  
passCount: 3  
failCount: 1  
skipCount: 0

I want to make a pie chart from that information, could you help me?

Yes, in the metric configuration select `top hit`. Then select the field you wish to use as the top hit metric.

In the screen shot below, the pie chart is showing the `hour_of_day` as the pie slice percentage.

Hi Nathan,  
Thank you for your answer.

I think you misunderstood my question.  
I am trying to take only the last event(top hit) and look at it "micro" and not "macro".

My meaning is - the pie chart will take the name of a field, take the value it has, and will show it in a pie chart.  
Just like my example, my pie chart will be 75% passCount, and 25% failCount.

Thanks.

That is what top hit will do. It will take the value from the first document for the group based on sort configuration.

The top hit is passCount:6 failCount:0

the answer here  
field - failConut:0  
value - 1(100%)

Can i ask what version you are running?
