Hi, Im having problems to display values in the control visualization, the field that I need to use is created by metricbeat.

in discovery I can see the values, and the field exist

In index patterns there is a field `azure.resource.name` and `azure.resource.name.keyword`

when I choose `aazure.resource.name.keyword` no values are displayed (tried with and without the visualization option: `use time filter`) and the pop up says that the field doesnt exist.

when I choose `azure.resource.name` the values are displayed

but it throws an error

that says :

```auto
Type
illegal_argument_exception
Reason
Text fields are not optimised for operations that require per-document field data like aggregations and sorting, so these operations are disabled by default. Please use a keyword field instead. Alternatively, set fielddata=true on [azure.resource.name] in order to load field data by uninverting the inverted index. Note that this can use significant memory.

```

What can I do to solve this?
