In the most simple mode you can turn time series to rows. This means you get a `Time`, `Metric` and a `Value` column.

Where `Metric` is the name of the time series.

+## Pipeline metrics
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you have Elasticsearch 2.x and Grafana 2.6 or above then you can use pipeline metric aggregations like
|
|
|
+**Moving Average** and **Derivative**. Elasticsearch pipeline metrics require another metric to be based on. Use the eye icon next to the metric
|
|
|
+to hide metrics from appearing in the graph. This is useful for metrics you only have in the query to be used
|
|
|
+in a pipeline metric.
