Hi! Recently we updated the stack from 7.5 to 7.8 and everything went smooth. However today we tried to update our index template through Kibana's ui and when saving the changes we got the following message. ![Captura de Pantalla 2020-09-02 a la(s) 11.16.46](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/d/6/d615b93497caaae117bf6d650dab8eca7bdea62c.png) If I recreate the template the message doesn't appear and the template is created. Is this behaviour expected? Thanks! ---
