Hello there, I am using ELK6.4 stack, I have data like the attached picture, and the search works only if I give like this "headers.direction:external" , but i need it to work when i give "direction:external", I am searching from Kibana.Please advice.

Thanks  
Pradeep! ![Untitled%206](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/2/32d3f18e9ec3729a2549143c0eca2bea796774a2.png)
