So I created a Visual Builder TopN Visualization with a Count metric and a group by Terms. I get no results. The data however exists in the index. Any ideas?

Hello,

Can you please check the Options tab (right next to metrics) and specify the index pattern and the time field that you're using? It needs to be defined if you have more than one index pattern in your cluster.
