Hi,

How we can apply the color for the respective fields in this dashboard.
source code :
<title>Top Web Category blocked</title>
<search>
<query>index=es_web action=blocked host= * sourcetype= *
| stats count by category
| sort 5 -count</query>
<earliest>$time_range_token.earliest$</earliest>
<latest>$time_range_token.latest$</latest>
</search>
<option name="charting.axisTitleX.visibility">visible</option>
<option name="charting.axisTitleY.visibility">visible</option>
<option name="charting.axisTitleY2.visibility">visible</option>
<option name="charting.chart">bar</option>
<option name="charting.backgroundColor">#00FFFF</option>
<option name="charting.fontColor">#000000</option>
<option name="charting.foregroundColor">#000000</option>
<option name="charting.chart.stackMode">default</option>
<option name="charting.drilldown">none</option>
<option name="charting.fieldColors">{"online-storage-and-backup":0x333333,"unknown":0xd93f3c,"streaming-media":0xf58f39,"internet-communications-and-telephony":0xf7bc38,"insufficient-content":0xeeeeee}</option>
<option name="charting.legend.placement">right</option>

In order to be able to colour them differently, you need separate fields. Try adding this to the end of your search

| transpose 0 header_field=category
