We seem to have found a possible bug in Kibana v 7.16.2 where the query gets lost after navigation.
1. Enter a search term in Kibana - results are displayed
2. Copy the browser URL and open it in a new tab
3. Same results are displayed and query is visible
4. Choose a different date
5. BUG: Query disappears from the KQL/Lucene search bar
The bug is not in Kibana 7.7
The issue is it prevents us sharing Kibana links as the shared link loses all context as soon as a different date filter is applied.

Hello,
7.16.2 won't get any bug fixes unless they are critical security patches. And 7.17 - I cannot reproduce this bug.
We just released 8.1. Are you ok changing your scenario to 7.17 to use the share url?
Thanks,
Bhavya

Hi
We will look into an upgrade. I can confirm that the problem only seems to occur with existing saved searches. If you try these steps without having a saved search (with Id) it works.

I can confirm it is solved in Kibana 7.17.2
Thanks!
