# Unpivot Processor Plugin
You can use the `unpivot` processor to rotate a multi field series into single
valued metrics. This transformation often results in data that is more easy to
aggregate across fields.
To perform the reverse operation use the [pivot] processor.
## Configuration
```toml @sample.conf
# Rotate multi field metric into several single field metrics
[[processors.unpivot]]
## Tag to use for the name.
tag_key = "name"
## Field to use for the name of the value.
value_key = "value"
```
## Example
```diff
- cpu,cpu=cpu0 time_idle=42i,time_user=43i
+ cpu,cpu=cpu0,name=time_idle value=42i
+ cpu,cpu=cpu0,name=time_user value=43i
```
