Hi everyone! I would like to use some VEGA Visualizations for some indexed data I have on elasticsearch but my json always generates errors! The only case it works is the VEGA Sankey visulization. Examples on the VEGA Gallery use tables as data source. Can enyone help me? Thank you in advance! 🙂 ---

Have you used the examples for setting up Elasticsearch as a data source from this blog post? > **[Custom Vega Visualizations in Kibana 6.2](https://www.elastic.co/blog/custom-vega-visualizations-in-kibana)** > > A new visualization type in Kibana lets you create custom visualizations using Vega, an open source, JSON-based, declarative language. ---
