Abstract

Disclosed are a system and a method for providing user-interactive flow diagrams such as Sankey diagrams. In an embodiment, a machine data search and analysis system retrieving search results including a plurality of events, in response to a search query. The system identifies a first characteristic type from data of the plurality of events as a horizontal dimension of a multi-dimensional chart, and a second characteristic type from the retrieved data as a vertical dimension of the multi-dimensional chart. The system causes display of the multi-dimensional chart indicative of the data of the plurality of events. The multi-dimensional chart includes a table of a plurality of objects. Each object of the plurality of objects represents one or more events that share a common value of the first characteristic type and share a common value of the second characteristic type.
