I have elastic basic free license  
can I hide some fields to a specific user ?  
or can I remove certain fields from appearing in kibana  
by unwanted fields, I meant these fields "@version", "\_id", "\_index", "\_score", "\_type", "ecs.version", "agent.version", "agent.type", "agent.id" , "agent.ephemeral\_id"

Field level restrictions are a paid feature sorry to say.
