Hi guys. I am filtering customer id using the below: `(%{NUMBER:customer-id:int}` On my Kibana dashboard, I see it with `,` and I would like to take the commas out. Example: ` **#** customer-id 389,542,059` Expected: ` **#** customer-id 389542059` I did some changes to the `Filter field format` but I couldn't find the correct pattern. ---

Hi @sud0 what kind of visualization are you using on the dashboard? Have you look at the [advanced settings](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/advanced-options.html) Specifically `format:number:defaultPattern` but that will change it for all numbers. Also you could keep the `customer-id` as a `text` and / or `keyword` data type if you are not planning to do any arithmetic with the number instead of making it an integer. ---
