Line, Area, and Bar charts

Line, Area, and Bar charts allow you to plot your data on X/Y axis.

First you need to select your metrics which define Value axis.

Metric Aggregations:

Parent Pipeline Aggregations:

For each of the parent pipeline aggregations you have to define the metric for which the aggregation is calculated. That could be one of your existing metrics or a new one. You can also nest this aggregations (for example to produce 3rd derivative)

Sibling Pipeline Aggregations:

Just like with parent pipeline aggregations you need to provide a metric for which to calculate the sibling aggregation. On top of that you also need to provide a bucket aggregation which will define the buckets on which the sibling aggregation will run

You can add an aggregation by clicking the + Add Metrics button.

Enter a string in the Custom Label field to change the display label.

The buckets aggregations determine what information is being retrieved from your data set.

Before you choose a buckets aggregation, specify if you are splitting slices within a single chart or splitting into multiple charts. A multiple chart split must run before any other aggregations. When you split a chart, you can change if the splits are displayed in a row or a column by clicking the Rows | Columns selector.

The X axis of this chart is the buckets axis. You can define buckets for the X axis, for a split area on the chart, or for split charts.

This chart’s X axis supports the following aggregations. Click the linked name of each aggregation to visit the main Elasticsearch documentation for that aggregation.

Once you’ve specified an X axis aggregation, you can define sub-aggregations to refine the visualization. Click + Add Sub Aggregation to define a sub-aggregation, then choose Split Area or Split Chart, then select a sub-aggregation from the list of types.

When multiple aggregations are defined on a chart’s axis, you can use the up or down arrows to the right of the aggregation’s type to change the aggregation’s priority.

Enter a string in the Custom Label field to change the display label.

You can customize the colors of your visualization by clicking the color dot next to each label to display the color picker.

Enter a string in the Custom Label field to change the display label.

You can click the Advanced link to display more customization options for your metrics or bucket aggregation:

{ "script" : "doc['grade'].value * 1.2" }

The availability of these options varies depending on the aggregation you choose.

Select the Metrics & Axes tab to change the way each individual metric is shown on the chart. The data series are styled in the Metrics section, while the axes are styled in the X and Y axis sections.

Modify how each metric from the Data panel is visualized on the chart.

Style all the Y-axes of the chart.

These are options that apply to the entire chart and not just the individual data series.

You can enable grid on the chart. By default grid is displayed on the category axis only.
