== Use rolled up data in a visualization
|
||
|
||
beta[]
|
||
|
||
You can visualize your rolled up data in a variety of charts, tables, maps, and
|
||
more. Most visualizations support rolled up data, with the exception of
|
||
Timelion, TSVB, and Vega visualizations.
|
||
|
||
To get started, go to *Management > Kibana > Index patterns.*
|
||
If a rollup index is detected in the cluster, *Create index pattern*
|
||
includes an item for creating a rollup index pattern.

|
||
|
||
You can match an index pattern to only rolled up data, or mix both rolled up
|
||
and raw data to visualize all data together. An index pattern can match only one
|
||
rolled up index, not multiple. There is no restriction on the number of standard
|
||
indices that an index pattern can match. When matching multiple indices,
|
||
use a comma to separate the names, with no space after the comma.
|
||
|
||
Keep the following in mind when creating a visualization from rolled up data:
|
||
|
||
* The data in a rollup index only has summarized metrics for specific fields.
|
||
You can’t search any other field from the original raw data.
|
||
* Data is summarized into time buckets that might be split into sub buckets for
|
||
numeric field values or terms. You can ask for a time aggregation that takes
|
||
several time buckets and combines them to lower granularity. For example,
|
||
if the rollup job was aggregated by hours, you can ask for buckets of days.
|
||
|
||
The following visualization of rolled up data shows the date histogram
|
||
interval multiple and the limited metrics aggregations.

||
Dashboards can have a mixture of rollup visualizations and regular visualizations,
|
||
as shown in the following figure. Note that not all queries and filters support rollups.
