Are scripted fields saved as objects anywhere

Are scripted fields saved as objects anywhere? I only see visualizations, dashboards, and searches under saved objects in kibana.

Yes, scripted fields are stored in Index Pattern saved objects. There is currently no tab for viewing Index Patterns under the saved objects view. The only way to view the contents of Index Pattern is with dev tools. Use the command GET .kibana/_search?q=type:index-pattern to view Index Pattern saved objects.

There is an open issue discussing better Saved Object management, https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/13329. Feel free to commit with desired use cases or open a new issue if the one provided is to broad.
