Hey,

I'm using Kibana 8.1.0 and when I try to search for certain fields in the tab "Discover", fields which are longer than a specific length are trimmed. Have a look at the Screenshot:

 ![Discover_Bug](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/d/edf04bb13504825d9357a6e6a7a1250265b77aa1.png)  
For Example the full name is _request.RequestData.orderBasketIn.header.buyerReference_ but the displayed name ist just _request.RequestData.orderBasketIn._

I already found an issue on Github which should be solved before my version (8.1.0).  
[https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/34971](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/34971)

It seems that the bug is still existing.

I'm grateful for help.

Regards

I reproduced this issue in 8.1.0 with the following index and data

```auto
PUT delete_long_field_names
{
  "settings": {
    "number_of_replicas": 1
  },
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "this.is.a.very.long.file.name.that.could.break.discover.search.bar": {
        "type": "text"
      }
    }
  }
}

POST delete_long_field_names/_doc
{
  "this.is.a.very.long.file.name.that.could.break.discover.search.bar": "foobar"
}

```

Getting this discover autocomplete

But then I upgraded to the last version from the 8.1.x series which is **8.1.3** and it's fixed

I also tested in 8.2.3 which is the latest stable release and it's also working fine.
