Hello, I'm trying to create a time series visualization with two series to see metrics from servers. My problem is: These two series use different json documents. the first serie has a field performancemanager.virtualmachines.name to identify Server name and the second uses inventory.virtualmachines.name to identify Server Name. I want to filter by Server in Dashboard (Using Global filter or controls). How can do this? If I use the field from the first serie, will affect the second serie. Is possible to create a mapping in ES/Kibana between these fields? Something like performancemanager.virtualmachines.name field is linked to inventory.virtualmachines.name, so if a create a global filter to performancemanager.virtualmachines.name, the second serie will use this filter in inventory.virtualmachines.name field? I have been thinking about using scripted fields, I think can be a solution to this, but I want to explore other solutions before getting in scripted fields. Thanks for help. Regards, Fábio Santos ---

Scripted fields could possibly solve your problem but Time Series Visual Builder does not support scripted fields. As of now I can't think of a work around that would solve your problem, this would need to be a new feature for the Time Series Visual Builder. Would you like to file an issue in our Github repo? [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues) I can do it on your behalf if you would like, if you file it then you will receive notification when the issue is updated or closed. Let me know 😃 ---

Hi @simianhacker, Tks for the answer. I will open the issue today. Regards, Fábio Santos ---

Hi @simianhacker, What should be a new feature? The time series support scripted fields, or another way to solve this problem? Regards, Fábio Santos ---

I would set the title to "Scripted Fields support for Time Series Visual Builder" then describe the problem you're having (like above) and how that would solve it. ---
