Hello,  
How could I use a script when counting?  
e.g:  
{  
“alias”: “”,  
“datasource”: “”,  
“hide”: false,  
“metrics”: [  
{  
“script”: {  
“inline”: “(\_value\*(12\*60000))/${\_\_interval\_ms}”  
}  
},  
“type”: “count”  
}  
],  
“query”: “”,  
“timeField”: “”  
}

where \_value is the counted value.

Thank you!
