Hey guys.  
I’m trying to display the status of several monitored Jobs using the Stat panel.  
To do this, I have created a query that can return various job-related data.  
 ![job_query](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/grafana/original/3X/0/0/009aa6c4e0f88b5608048b9d10e5557a4a76e3c8.png)

The idea is to use the same query for multiple panels, where only the fields displayed would change.

In “_ **Value options** _” I can “select the **fields** that should be included in the panel”.

 ![stat_all_fields](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/grafana/original/3X/1/6/164fe1b1a6d1af80ab13351adc51aee9c513080d.png)

Selecting **`All Fields`** or **`Numeric Fields`** are somewhat limited options.  
So, I found out that a limited Regular Expression can also be used in cases where there are many fields. _BTW, I could not find this information in the documentation._

In my example, I was able to use the expression **`/Status - ETL.*/`** to display only the **field names** for this first panel.  
 ![stat_fields_regex(1)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/grafana/original/3X/f/d/fd85865cf1b39d0220c092dcdd6e9f0926912e5a.png)

Now, my hope is to extend the expression to filter the fields without displaying the “Status” term.  
I wish it was something like this:

> **`/Status - (ETL.*)/$1/`**

But of course, this does not work out. It seems that the field does not support capture groups.

Any thoughts on this matter?

I could not use an extended regex in the `Fields` field.

But, using a `Filter by name` transformation helped me to filter the displayed fields.
