I think that you are running into a bug that has been fixed with 7.5.1- keyword fields from an older version of Kibana were accidentally hidden in 7.5.0. There is a workaround you can use without upgrading, which is to go to Management -\> Index Patterns -\> Refresh the index pattern you want

That would explain it- if the field is not aggregatable, it's probably a `text` mapping instead of a `keyword` mapping.
