with ELK find most frequent error strings in log

Using logstash, elasticsearch and kibana I'd like to find the most frequently occurring error strings in some logs. It's quite easy to find the most frequently occurring words in the error messages, or the most frequently occurring checksum of the error strings, but I can't see how to monitor the error strings.

You can easily perform this task using Kibana 4 table visualization by selecting the terms aggregation over the error string field and using count to count the number of results per each error string.

You can read more about visualizations here:
