Hi ,
I am using kibana 7.17.0 , started getting this error "Error fetching fields for index pattern abcd-\* (ID: 9dffc420-9ea5-11ec-93d5-xxxxxxxxxx) undefined Response" from today. it was working from last 2 months. it points to \_request/\<@[https://x.x.x.x/46534/bundles/plugin/dataViews/kibana/dataViews.plugin.js:1:37078](https://x.x.x.x/46534/bundles/plugin/dataViews/kibana/dataViews.plugin.js:1:37078)
I have gone through other post but seems I am the only one getting "undefined Response".
Please suggest how to troubleshoot this error.
Thanks,
Homesh

Hello Homesh,
Can you please query your Elasticsearch and see if you have data?
Thanks,

Hi Bhavya,
Yes I have the data, as I also have more specific patterns which are working e.g. abcd-123-\* or abcd-456-\* is working. also if I try to create new pattern like abcd\* it showing me loading image for timestamp field.
Thanks,
Homesh

I Resolved this with a workaround by creating a pattern as abcd-1\* as all the indexes starts with this pattern. However I still don't know why abcd-\* do not able to find the fields from selected indexes.
Can you please help in finding the reason for this.
Thanks,
Homesh

It would be worth getting to the bottom of this. Could you capture a har file that includes the `_fields_for_wildcard` request?
You could also try [Field capabilities API | Elasticsearch Guide [7.17] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.17/search-field-caps.html) with the index pattern string you're attempting. It should fail in the same way. A har file might be helpful here too.
