Hello! Is there any way to add column to visualization table which will represent field from another index? I only found relation column based on external queries.

I have 2 indexes with projects and time-based events with project-uuid field. I configured relation between indexes and want to show project name in Events visualization table without need of indexing it into events index.

Hi there. There are multiple solutions to this we're pondering.

Could you please rate how important this is for your use case:

  • just show
  • sort on that field
  • export the CSV with that too
  • clicking on the value and going to a connected dashboard with a filter on that.

sure they're all nice to have :) but we're pondering if to roll out a solution that would address some of this (frontend solution) or do it later when the backend supports it.

Thanks for quick response!

First of all it's show. And maybe export to CSV. Because I didn't find tools that can combine related data from different indexes and show it together.

Other two cases can be workarounded somehow so they are less important I think.

Ok noted, its a highly sought after things we'll roll out in some future version
