Kabana: v 7.2.1  
I've change the value of elasticsearch.requestTimeout from 30secs (30000) to 60secs (60000) in /etc/kibana/kibana.yml and restart Kibana due to the timeout I'm getting for few searches in UI after 30secs.

```auto
    grep elasticsearch.requestTimeout /etc/kibana/kibana.yml
    elasticsearch.requestTimeout: 60000

```

Even after restart I still don't see I still see kibana sending timeout":"30000ms"} from UI (/elasticsearch/\_msearch?rest\_total\_hits\_as\_int=true&ignore\_throttled=true) but this time my query took 35secs and I got response. Is this a bug with kibana UI?

I don't think that its a bug in UI, however can you provide more log outs of both ES and KIbana when this happens? More information can also be found here in this discuss thread: [Max value for elasticsearch.requestTimeout in kibana.yml configuration](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/max-value-for-elasticsearch-requesttimeout-in-kibana-yml-configuration/110439/4)

Thanks
