Hi all,

Running ES 7.9 1.10

I need to create visualizations from queries SQL or DSL. I don’t see how this is possible in this version. If I am incorrect can you provide the basic steps or point me to documentation which shows how to do this?

Thanks in advance,

Ed

It is still not supported with SQL, however there is a new language called PPL that comes with SQL, which you can use to create visualizations with queries.
