Hello everyone,

I am using Kibana 7.9.3 and I am currently facing an issue where the timelion is blank

this is the query i am using  
**.es(index=investigation\_master\_index,timefield=uco-observable:sentTime.@value, split=messageText.keyword:1000)**

The sentTime and messageText are full of data and if i dont use the split with messageText the timelion is displayed correctly, but i want to correllate sentTime with messages in order for the visualization to make sense.

Below are the mappings of the messageText field  
"uco-observable:messageText" : {  
"type" : "keyword"  
},

Have in mind i have also used  
**.es(index=investigation\_master\_index,timefield=uco-observable:sentTime.@value, split="uco-observable:messageText.keyword:1000")**

and it returns an error  
**size doesn't support values of type: VALUE\_NULL**

Any ideas?

Thank you
