I'm trying to group data in a table in Kibana, and when I use the "Add Field" functionality to create new fields and group the data, I notice that as I apply more groupings, the data in the table becomes smaller or disappears. Why does this happen and how can I use "Add Field" effectively to group data without losing information in the visualization?
