Hi community,  
My dashboard panel show blank page when I delete old indice and create new one. I'm also not able to edit panels. The new indice is still received document and I can create new panel with visualization.  
Both old and new panel has the same index patern and filter field configuration

Please take a look and give me advice

Thanks

Which version of Kibana are you using? I think this case was improved in 7.12 (showing a nice error message and allowing to edit), but I might be mistaken.

> when I delete old indice and create new one

What exactly do you mean by that? Deleting indices in Elasticsearch? Deleting/recreating the index pattern saved object in Kibana?

Hi Joe,  
My kibana version is 7.12 🙂  
I deleted indice in Stack Management --\> Data --\> Index Management and new index is automactically created after that.

Is it possible the mapping of the new index is different than the old one?

Also, could you check whether any errors are logged in the browser console when navigating to a dashboard with a broken blank panel?

All the mapping fields are still exist and searchable within new indice

Hi,  
I recreated the index pattern and add old index id to custom index patern id and the panels show data now.because old panels link to old index id 🙂

You shouldn't delete and re-create the index pattern saved object if there are still visualizations linked to it. It's not necessary to do that - the field list will update automatically and it will still query the right data.
