i am trying to sort on the 'field' column but the sorting is disabled somehow. i checked the dataview and it shows 38 fields available, but in discover there are only 18 fields.
Hi @venxxx and welcome to the community!
Looks like the currently selected seq_number
field has text type. Text fields are not sortable, only fields with keyword, number etc types.
Hi there,
thank you for your reply. yes, I did notice this. there is seq_number.keyword in data view settings, but it didn't show up on discover view.
When you press on seq_number
in the fields sidebar, it should open a popover. Inside that popover I would expect to see seq_number.keyword
which you can then add to the table.
Thank you so much! Added seq_number.keyword to the view, but how to sort it based on the value of number? now it seems like it's sorting on text.
Does your data view target multiple indices? Then mapping should be changed for all of them.
Also, mapping changes might require reindexing of the data.
