If you are talking about auto complete in Dev Tools, try this: Dev Tools -\> Settings -\> Autocomplete -\> Fields .... ![Autocomplete](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/4/7/47317f32a53fb24dcd2319a8f2806d42f5a8328f.png) ---

You have to know your index Mapping fields. You have auto completion for high level requests not for low level ones as your index fields in search request ---

As you see, when you began typing your request, GET properties.... you had auto completion. Even when you started typing query, you certainly had auto completion that put "FIELD": "TEXT" after typing match in your query. All fields in Capital letter have to be known by the user himself as they have to be completed by user data fields that can't be known by Kibana UI tools. For example: in FIELD you could have a field updatedDate that hase value TEXT: 1504013335... Those fields can't be auto completed as they're not fields from the query API but from your data ---

Please consider the following scenario, I have 2 separate Elastic search Nodes 1. Node 1 (Elastic search 6.5.1 and Kibana 6.5.1) 2.

Yes I understand what you mean now. I suggest you to create a bug issue, maybe this is something they forgot in the last release. ---
