Hi @cjcenizal

Those links help in fixing it. This is exactly what I tried:

> [@Saved "field" parameter is now invalid. Please select a new field. .... Visualize: "field" is a required parameter](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/saved-field-parameter-is-now-invalid-please-select-a-new-field-visualize-field-is-a-required-parameter/70034/16):

> Can you also run GET metricbeat\*/\_mapping/metricsets/field/system.load.norm.15 and GET /\_field\_stats?fields=system.load.norm.15 in dev tools and send me the output? Refreshing the field list in management (the yellow button) should correct those fields to be marked as searchable and aggregatable, unless their is an issue with no data existing for those fields.

I have refreshed the metricbeat fields and I could see the diskio fields are searchable and aggregatable now.

I have also learned some useful GET queries which can tell us if the fields are mapped and are searchable and aggregatable or not.

> GET metricbeat\*/\_mapping/metricsets/field/system.diskio.read.count

and

> GET /\_field\_stats?fields=system.diskio.read.count
