I am trying to add a Time filter element to a Canvas Workpad, but each time I do it breaks the existing table or chart elements. I think that I have followed all online guidance/tutorials to the letter e.g. [image] Using Metric and Markdown Elements in Canvas within Kibana Learn how to …

I encountered this issue as well. Try using time filters in all your visualisations.

I'm on 7.9.2 and I've also tried another deployment from scratch with just a 10 record index. I don't get the error message, but the time filter behaviour overall isn't fit for purpose.
