Hi,  
I have field "message" which includes "error 404" or "error 506" etc. is there any option to search in Kibana by value? In this case by value "error" no matter what's more this field include. I want to create dashboard with field "message" which includes only "error" message.

Hi @newbie5  
Welcome to community

Do search on discover as `message: 'error'`
